Hello to all

First is there an easy way of adding a number of words to a custom dictionary? Secondly If I make a custom dictionary named Gorean and
turn it off does this then remove the gorean words from spell checking?

I need to add about 450 words, would be nice if I could do them a batch at a
time.

Thank you

Hi Roy

Welcome aboard.

You can certainly set up a custom dictionary in Tools-Options-Language Settings-Writing Aids. This can be turned on and off by enabling the tick (check) against its name. When you right click an underlined (misspelled, unrecognised) word, adding the word to the new dictionary will become an option

There is a macro which is supposed to add words to a specialist dictionary. I have not tried it, so can't vouch for usefulness. Note that there is a limit of (I think) 2500 words per dictionary. The list is plain text, so easy to edit if you need to

If you uncheck the gorean list, then the words will again be shown as unrecognised.
