[Air-l] small i and MSW

[Andy Williamson & Ruth DeSouza]

Hi Barry

I just tried this with Word2003 and I don't have the same problem... Have
you inadvertently added "Internet" with a big 'I' to your custom
dictionary... That would explain the behaviour. 

You can check from "tools, spelling and grammar" and from the dialog box
take "options", at the next one "custom dictionaries". Select a dictionary
from the list and then "modify" (it's a bit cryptic!).

Re the small-i internet discussion, has anyone figured out how to beat the
MS Word problem. Every time I type in "internet" instead of "Internet" and I
have my grammar checker on, I get the cursed green-underline. I cannot, even
using auto-correct and updating my spell checker, get it to stop nagging me
to capitalize the "I". This is Word 2002, which I think is aka Word XP.

Any fixes for this? I don't want to force it to always small "i", as
American Sociological style for books would be to capitalize the first
letter of all major words.
