Even though I’m a web developer by nature, I find myself writing about databases fairly often.  At work I’m writing a proposal for building a reporting database with a denormalized structure for better query performance and I keep running into a problem.  Microsoft apparently did not think that denormalize was a good enough word to include in their dictionary so Word keeps replacing denormalize with “demoralize”. 

So for all of you DBA’s out there this bids the question, how would you “demoralize” a table?  I figure it’s good to have a response in case the word accidentally slips into one of these proposals at some point.
