How do I make changes to libre to let me ignore all or add to the dictionary?

I do not like these squiggly red lines under words. It is annoying and a pet peeve of mine. I tried copying to word, edited it and then pasted to libre but the squiggly lines came back

All I am doing is cutting and pasting addresses for shipping orders.

Thank you!

So far it is great, I added a logo and resized it. Never thought I could get that far.

Go to the top menu and deselect: Tools -> Automatic Spell Checking . See attached image.

To make it permanent, go to Tools -> Options. A new window will open. Select "Writing Aids" on the left column and uncheck "Check Spelling as you type" and "Check grammar as you type." See the other attached image.

Is LibreOffice as good as or better than OpenOffice?

I agree... Never pay a ridiculous Microsoft price "for nothing" again.

Apache OpenOffice is what I was going to suggest. You beat me to it. Best part is that it's free.

I am notorious for screwing up files etc and to have that 2016 version of Microsoft on my PC

just compounded the etard in me.

Just made me pull out my hair, almost.

Last nite, I pulled an all niter; I made an inventory spreadsheet, made two separate invoices: one with a logo!

Look at me go! LOL! I had to pace in between waiting for my computer to catch up...but I made progress!

This new free software makes me feel smarter, any monkey can do it!

I am almost to the point where I may even donate to the Publisher.

Tax write off and good Karma.

Glad it works for you.

LibreOffice is closely related to OpenOffice. OpenOffice was originally developed by Sun Microsystems. Oracle bought Sun and stopped development of OpenOffice. Being that OpenOffice was open source, many OpenOffice developers forked the project into LibreOffice. One and a half years later, Oracle donated OpenOffice to Apache, who resumed development of it. So, both OO and LO share the same roots.
