You need to press control-s to save your JAWS dictionary additions before
exiting.
Also, in case this is relevant, before adding to the dictionary, you need to
decide if you want the change or changes to stay with that program only or with
all applications. If you want to make the change affect all applications, press
control-shift-d before adding the new entries. You need do so only once for
each dictionary session, no matter how many words you add, and the same with
control-s to save them.
I know of no way you can add an external dictionary to MS Word. If there is,
I'm sure someone on the list will tell us.

Hi all, I'm back again with another fix it challenge?
Need some help in figuring this one out?
I do a lot of creative writing and have crated hundreds of unusual words and
names. When I do a spell check in my story or document the spell checker of
course stops on these names. I add them to my dictionary each time but they do
not become part of the dictionary. For the very next time the same word or name
comes up again the spell checker will not recognize it and there is no common
suggestion for that word.
How do I get Word 2003 to store those added words. It use to work fine. Is
there a limit on the amount of words or space in my dictionary?
Can someone help me work this out?
Also: Is there a professional dictionary that can be added into Word that the
spell checker will use in my normal ordinary word document? Not one that I have
to go to the net to use but a add on built in one that runs right into Word
2003, just checking?
MMM
