Corrupt files?

[Orianna]

I am having a lot of problems with Word 2002, but my question is, How can I
locate my Stedmans' Spellchecker file? For some reason it seems it does not
recognize any medical terms, just basic language. I have no idea where to
start. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

This really sounds like a support issue for Stedman's
(http://www.stedmans.com/). Never having used their products... I have to
ask: have you tried reinstalling the Stedman's product? It would seem that
that would be the quickest way to get Word to use it.

Assuming that it *is* installed, I'd check here: Tools - Options - Spelling
and Grammar - Custom Dictionaries (not sure if that's how Stedman's is
installed). If it's not there, then try Help - About Microsoft Word -
Disabled Items, and see if it's been disabled for some reason.
