I must be doing something very wrong - the attached zip has the following files

original spelled dispelled.docx
post S&R spelled dispelled.docx
testReplaceRules.doc

I run S&R using "testReplaceRules.doc" on "original spelled dispelled.docx",

I click Yes to the first 'spelled',
I click Ignore to the first 'dispelled',
I click Yes to all the subsequent 'spelled's

All the subsequent 'dispelled' are ignored in that sense that there's no confirm dialogue. But as I click Yes to the rest of the 'spelled's I see the prior 'dispelled's change to 'dispelt' and the 'spelled' changed to 'spelt'.

The outcome can be seen in "post S&R spelled dispelled.docx".

If I click No on a 'spelled' then it is not changed nor is prior 'dispelled'.
