Yes, I understand that, but in the spell checker there's the ability to lookup a word in the spell checker. I don't mean lookup as in find a meaning for a word, I mean lookup a word to insert into your document. Does that make sense?

Chris, If you purchased the US Oxford Concise Dictionary and Thesaurus then only US words will be present. It is possible to purchase the Oxford Dictionary and Thesaurus for the UK and I am sure other countries as well. What Alex was refering to was using the spell checker, not the OCDT.
