We're setting up a template for a document which has a fair amount of words in upper case.

To catch words misspelled (even those in upper case), we go to File >> Options >> Proofing >> and uncheck "Ignore words UPPERCASE". Since we can't control what setting users have on their computer, we're using...

Code:
Private Sub Document_Open()
    Options.IgnoreUppercase = False
End Sub

...in the ThisDocument module

Can you build a custom dictionary to add those upper case words to the template that you know are good?

Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
