Click on Tools / Options.

Click the Spelling & Grammar tab.

Click the Custom Dictinoaries button.

Click the Modify button then click on the word that's misspelled then click
Delete.

This should work.

Don't forget to re-check the "check spelling as you type" after you modify
your custom dictionary. Under Tools --> Options --> Spelling and Grammar
