How do you stop spell checking any "word" that has an underscore in it.

I send lots of email that reference code.  Either with snipits, or mentioning variable names or file names etc.

So I would I disable any spell check of any word that has an underscore character as part of it.  For example dont_check_this_var.

I specifically am concerned about settings in Outlook

Right click on the word, and select "Ignore all".

To disable spellcheck,

  • Click the File tab, and then click Options
  • Click Mail , and then click Editor Options
  • Click to clear the Check spelling as you type check box. 
  • Click to clear the Mark grammar as you type check box.

This is NOT an answer at all.

Person (and me) want to exclude words with underscores, just like "words with numbers" ...

I do NOT want to turn off spell check, just improve it.

Thanks.
