Yeah - that's a bug in Word 5.0. Microsoft has released an update to the
Grammar and Spelling modules and an update to the main program. Contact
Microsoft for their latest. Module updates and updater to Word 5.0a are
also available at several FTP sites, including sumex-aim.stanford.edu in
the info-mac/util directory.
Good luck,
