Deleting from Custom Dictionary Word 2011


adding word custom dictionary simple 1 click affair - can problem if accidentally add bad spelling. have done , have looked high , low assumed simple way delete word custom dictionary. found , tried follow instructions @ http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/using-custom-dictionaries-in-word-2011-for-mac.html things did not happen described there.

say:
"in word, choose file→open."

no problem there except goes last folder using, went folder microsoft office 2012.

"select files enable pop-up menu."

did this.

"choose .dic file want use , click open".

file - did search on entire computer files extension ".dic" , found 2 (and two) looked promising called wordlist_chs.dic , wordlist.cht.dic

"click show button on word’s standard toolbar toggle on ability see paragraph marks if aren’t showing already".

here, got way ahead of me - when clicked open" using text edit got pages , pages of symbol gibberish no strings of normal english. maybe isn't custom dictionary. utterly lost :confused:and find hard believe there not much easier way of getting rid of bad entry in custom dictionary.

appreciated!
