How to add word in the Microsoft word dictionary

Asked By martinpatel 0 points N/A Posted on - 08/14/2011

I am a data entry operator of an office.

Sometimes I write some word in Microsoft Word.

Microsoft Word marks some noun word as misspelled with a wavy underline.

I want to add some nouns in Microsoft Word 2007 in my PC.

How is it possible? 

Please describe the steps to me.
