Does anyone know if there is a way to get rid of that green line that
appears under a sentence such as this:
Sometimes she does.
Yes, it is not a complete sentence, but often I write incomplete sentences
and want them just that way. Is there a way to choose -- always ignore -- for
incompletes just as you can add words to the spell check dictionary?
Thank you
Heh! You sound like you are confident enough to break the rules with
style and panache. Turn the stupid grammar checker off forever.
Always I do.

Well there are a couple options. One - use proper grammar :) Okay so
you want to purposefully not use proper grammar. Then you will need
another option. Funny enough if I type the sentence you gave as an
option it does not get highlighted (are you using Word 2004 for
MAC?). Anyhow that is beside the point. If you do not want the
program to check grammar at all then Go into Tools>Spelling and
Grammar... and deselect the "Check Grammar" option. If however you
want grammar checked but do not want certain types of grammar to be
checked, then click on the "Options..." button. Under grammar, you
can try a couple things. First, you can select the "casual" writing
style which may work for you. Alternatively, click the "Settings...."
button, and deselect the options you do not want the grammar checker
to use.

Or follow Neil's advice to ignore every "error" of that kind.
