I’ve set Microsoft Word 2007 to ignore words in UPPERCASE, but when I type “HSA” as in Healthcare Savings Account, it keeps telling me I’ve spelled “has” wrong.

Are You An Office Genius?

UPDATE: Looks like I missed the boat on this one. The deadline for this was back at the end of June. I need to update my e-mail address for some of my Microsoft newsletters to Gmail. Is that ironic?
