Sorry if this is a repeat of a previous question but I have Googled
through the archives without success:

I'm using Word 2002 (as part of Office) with XP Pro + SP2

When I spell check a document in Word, unfamiliar or incorrectly words
are flagged but no suggestions as to correct replacements are offered
even if I add a word to the custom.dic.

Searching has revealed a number of *.lex files here: \Program
Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Proof\

Should I 'see' this path anywhere in the Options or other areas of Word?

TIA

Richard
