Ah, see I've set mine up so that ANY word not in it comes up and I add it to
my dictionary. But I have to check that sometimes also as I may be very
tired and accidentally hit ADD instead of Change!

What! You trust a spellchecker?
Mind you, most problems over here are caused by Microsoft's concept of
English (British), which is full of Americanisms.
I've yet to meet one that coped with "liaise" , it insists that I should
drop 'u' from certain 'ou' combinations, and forgets to double up some
consonants after vowels. It makes checking my sons' homework a real bind,
when they run the spellchecker and then I come along and tell them its still
wrong.
And as for their grammar checker.... words fail me.
Cultural imperialism anyone? ;-)
