As I run Spellcheck I want to save unusual names to my 'dictionary' so I
don't have to keep ignoring them. However, that box will not activate.
 
Version of outlook and office?

Did you upgrade or migrated the custom.dic from an older office version or
is this a new custom.dic? You should use a new custom.dic created by office
2007.

If it is a custom.dic created by office 2007, one of the following could be
the cause:

the file is corrupt - delete the custom.dic and let office make a new one.
the file was read only - change the read/write flag.
the folder containing the file was read only - try moving it to a new
location and see if it works.
