Multiple spellcheck dictionaries in WORD??

by porthome Feb 27, 2007 11:03PM PST

I would like to create a special dictionary of technical terms for spellcheck purposes in MS Word, but don't want to bog down my system with the added overhead unless I need it. So my question is ..
1. Where are the spellcheck files kept?
2. Can you invoke a special one if you need it?

Thanks in advance for any help

Kees and others use some magic to coax such information forth.
