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,

- John
