In Microsoft Word, in the tools menu there is an option called Auto correct 
options.  It's pretty self explanitory once you enter on it.  You set this 
up and it just replaces mispelled words.  My bad one is writing *teh* 
instead of *the* - Word just changes it for me.

Subject: [jaws-uk] Dictionary in Word


Dear all,

I am using Jaws 6 with Windows 98.

Firstly apologies that this query isn't Jaws-specific, but I wondered if
anyone had the answer to my question.

I wish to create what is called, I believe, an exceptions, or exclusions,
dictionary in Word. A dictionary that would alert me when it came across
words that it would normally think correctly spelt.

An example word is manger, where I meant to type manager. I would wish to be
alerted if the dictionary found manger during a spellcheck.

I was pretty certain there was a way to do this, but can't remember what I
had to do. Can anyone help please?

With many thanks.

Keith
