Three comments about the spell checker in Word 3.0.

1) Words in the user dictionary are not listed as part of "suggest". If
you but foo in the user dictionary and suggest on fooo, foo will not be
listed.

2) It took me a while to realize that you can type any word into the
"Change To: box and then click on suggest to see if it is correctly
spelled.

3) As noted before, the words from suggest are listed in order of 
probable correctness and is really good at picking the right word.

Overall a nice spell checker even when compared to MacLightning.
