Medical dictionary for Word 7 - grandz


Posted: Aug 15, 2011

Anybody have experience with adding a medical dictionary that works with Word 7 and doesen't require a home equity loan to download?

Dictionary - OHMT

What I did, instead of buying a medical dictionary, is look up unknown words as I come across them and add them to my custom dictionary. Then...it's there the next time and it cost me nothing. I know severe other MTs who have done the same thing.

that is what I have done for the past 20 years, and - anon

my Word dictionary is now customized to my specific worktype. Takes time to buid up, but not as long as you would think.

Added to my custom dictionary, as well as using MTH - FlaMT

The MTH spellchecker/dict. can be found here: http://mtherald.com/free-medical-spell-checker-for-microsoft-word-custom-dictionary/

Just so you know, I have found that this dictionary includes British spellings, so you might want to scan through it or be on the lookout for those then delete them from the dictionary as you see fit. I've been using it for about a year now and have only had to delete a handful of entries, which (to me) is better than paying $$$$ for another program.
