Spelling and grammar capitilization

Word picks up the following sentence:

I asked Amberly if she had a...

It recommends I replace Amberly with amberly.

How do I tell Word that Amberly is and always will be correct?


I also prefer Unix to UNIX. Both are acceptable. How do I tell
Word to stop highlighting Unix?

I did. Notice that it had no problem with the lower-case "amberly".
It just doesn't like me to spell it "Amberly". When I check, it
doesn't give me an option to add it again, because it doesn't think it
is misspelled.

I note that in the below paragraph Word does not recognize the words
as a spelling issue, but instead a grammar issue. While you are spell
checking, you can request that the rule be ignored which will mean
that you will no longer be alerted if you forget to capitalize the
first word of a sentence.

Ahh, that worked. It's not ideal, I'd rather pick which words
should be ignored. I have no idea why it thought Amberly should be
lower case though.

I always tried to avoid starting a sentence with the word "dBase III".
