I hope everyone didn't consider this question to elementary. Before
posting, I did check the docs in AW and online. They indicated that AW
would add words to a custom dictionary (common behavior to most writing
progs), but as I mentioned this only works in that particular AW
session. If anyone can point me in a direction to look, I'd really
appreciate it.

Thanks,
Ron
