Of course I went straight to the ribbon, found that the US Dictionary was still the preferred one, did the deed and haven't had a problem since.

Your version of MS Office 2013 may be the more expensive one Paul, with a lot of extra's thrown in. Mine is the Education version, which although has some shortcomings for those who may need them, it is fine for me.

All Office versions come with the same proofing tools, etc. Aside from Office Basic, that comes pre-loaded on some computers, the only difference between, say, a Home & Student version and a Professional version concerns which applications are included, not what those applications support.
