Can anyone tell me how to add words to the autocorrect dictionary? I can't find an option to let me do this. Its certainly not like not like on WP8.

Here is what I have done. Open word and excel and whatever office program you might be using, go to File, Options, Proofing.. hit auto correct options. Find the offending correction on the list below, highlight it, and delete it. As someone who has to talk about Health Savings Accounts, not being able to type HSA was really annoying.
I have the same problem. This is super easy and intuitive on my Android gadgets but seemingly impossible on Windows. Can't we manually tweak the dictionary? It seems like once Windows thinks a word is spelled a certain way, that's it! Heaven help you if it gets into the dictionary wrong.

I did not know they were integrated. Thanks for sharing your resolution.
no matter what you do, no red underlining appears.
The Help says to use Undo (e.g. Ctrl-z). What happens then?
Tap the underlined word... then add to dictionary. Easy.
