How do I remove a miss-spelled word from my “personal dictionary”?

I added a miss-spelled word to my “personal dictionary” before I realized it was miss-spelled. I tried to find the dictionary file on my computer hoping I could open it and remove the miss-spelled word, but a search didn't show it. I don't know what the file is named or where it is located. I just need to get the miss-spelled word removed. Is there some way to remove the miss-spelled word and leave the rest of my personal dictionary in tact?

Write another message, start the spell check. You'll see an Edit button which lets you see and change the contents of your personal dictionary.
