Can I customize word's grammar check?

[Joshua Prowse]

I frequently write "oft he" instead of "of the". If I write this in
Word, then autocorrect will pick it up. If I write it in another
application and use word to spell and grammar check my text (say, when
I'm taking notes on my Palm Pilot), then word will not flag this. I
want word to flag all instances of "oft he" with the squiggly green
underline of the grammar checker and offer to replace it; is the
grammar checker configurable enough that I can do this?

It sounds like "if I write it in another application", then the language
settings are wrong. Are you then copying/pasting into Word or what? If so,
try hitting Ctrl+A and set the language (it may be set to "no proofing",
which is what you DON'T want).
