Default How to 'forbid' bad words?

When opening a doc file which contains misspelled words, the program underlines automatically. Is it possible to do the same thing for bad words?

Default Bad words

Using Autocorrect options, I believe that you can enter those words and have them replaced with the same words, but formatted with an underline.

Thanks for your response. Unfortunately, this option is only for replace text as you type.

Default Replacement

How about replacing the words in Word's dictionary with close variants which are not actual words, such as shite, which then become the standard against which Word compares for misspellings?

I think this is the answer to your dilemma.
