590190 2007-09-11 21:46:00 In various documents and or circumstances the "Add to dictionary" option in the right spelling dialogue is grayed out when looking at an unrecognised (by MS) word for no apparent reason.

Anyone come across this? Any cures?

Cheers

590191 2007-09-11 22:53:00 Found several References to word 2003 - it says its a corrupted custom.dic file.

Try looking Here (help.lockergnome.com) at the post from Tonyblu explains it, or its in read only mode.

And Here (www.tech-recipes.com) on how to edit the 2007 custom.dic

And Here (forums.microsoft.com) in the MS forms on how to repair spell chck in word 2007.

Hope it helps in some way with your problem

590193 2007-09-19 02:55:00 You could go in and change the Properties to "any dictionary". That gets rid of the greyed out menu. Bryan (147)
