meaning in context - MS Word does not like 'any body' and corrects it to 'anybody'


I am always at loggerheads with MS Word in this case. I write a sentence with 'any body' and it pops up its annoying blue underline suggesting 'anybody'.


The question: should I let it correct it? Does the meaning change? Personally, I don't like this correction.


Example:




The catastrophic disaster left the city with hundreds of bodies. While walking through the corpses with my heavy heart and tears in my eyes, I kept on shouting, “If you find any body [MS Office suggestion -anybody] even with the slightest movement, call for emergency. Jesus, help us.”



Anybody = Any body = Any corpse here?
