John. No, there's really no way to do that yet. It's been one of many things on to-do lists for a while, but can't give much of an ETA now. I'd like to take it a little bit further than giving a verdict on whether to challenge or not when one is certainty that the word is invalid. What would really be nice is for Quackle to tell the user what their estimated probability of the word's phoniness need be for them to challenge. John
