G'day Whitey ,

One simple way I have used before is to use VBA to iterate the
spelling errors collection and highlight them. If you cant write this
yourself, read the tutorials at the top of the VBA tab at

http:/word.mvps.org/FAQs/index.htm


Then ask for help in the VBA groups with the objects needed.
