My dear Mr. Phillips -- but I *have* registered. Many times, in fact. Plus, I've paid for each upgrade as its come along, wishing to do my part to support Ritlabs. Unfortunately, I *lost* my registration key during a recent "upgrade" to v 3.51. The "upgrade" didn't take, it wouldn't load, it kept freezing at the splash screen, etc., so I've had to download another copy of TB and start all over again (you'd have known this if you'd bothered to read the thread about my recent misfortune). And thanks to the help of several folks here, and for which I will always be grateful, I have now managed to salvage my old key from an old backup, too, and that pathetic nag screen is finally gone. But thanks again for all of your help and your especially warm response! Sheesh. PS: There's no good reason, even for someone trying out TB for the very first time, to have to put up with all that crap during the trial period. One nag screen per Bat session is more than enough to get the point across, and is what most other trial software (at least those that I've ever used) companies use. None. Nada. Zilch.

At the top of the list and at the bottom of the list, with a horizontal line separating the two at the bottom from the long list above which has the first two at the top? Like this: American English British English Danish Dutch British French German (New Spelling) German (Old Spelling) Italian Norwegian (Bokmal) Portuguese (Brazilian) Portuguese (Iberian) Spanish Swedish _ American English British English In mine, I have American English at the bottom checked. And it does not flag email as misspelled. Now, as a test, I'm flagging (checking) American English at the top, instead. And sure enough, it does stop at email as misspelled, just as you said. If you don't have them twice, so that you can check the American English (or British English) at the bottom, you indeed do not have the CSAPI dictionary installed, as it says in Help/Index/Find/Dictionaries/Spell-Checker/--and scrolling down, the information that The Bat! automatically detects and installs CSAPI. Now, as we both know, the Help file is old, much of it not yet revised for v. 3.xx--some of it going back to 1.xx. Do you think you may have found a bug in v. 3.51.10, whereby TB! no longer automatically detects and installs the CSAPI dictionary from Office 97? Here's a copy-and-paste from what MIguel said to me on April 18, 2005, on how to know if I had both dictionaries installed: (TBBETA mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ) > Maybe you have both available. Try something. Open the editor and > select > one of you British English dics and then select Spell > Checker/Dictionaries. What dic is shown in Dictionary-File?

Do you get the > same UserDic.tlx or do you perhaps get eng_uk.dic or something > similar? > If you get eng_uk.dic then that's CSAPI dic from MS Office. From the bottom entry, selecting British English, I do see eng_uk.dic. Astounding. How I got it, I have no idea. However, I was running Word 97 when I got my first TB!, v. 1.61. * So, what do you think, Greg? Should 3.51.10 have copied this for you from Office 97? If so, and it hasn't, either there's a bug in it or something has gone wrong locally for you.

He can look on the machine that runs Office 97 and compare what I see in Spell Checker/Language and what he sees. If it's not installed, he may have found a bug in 3.51.10.

For example, one of my old Accounts may have been named "John Doe." But I setup the new Account name using the Account's e-mail address for John Doe, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (I think it's less confusing this way, because I had several very similar Account names). Will there be conflicts because of that, if and when I ever do attempt to re-import the "old" data into my new version of TB? And by having a different name for each "new" Account, when I re-import the "old" Account data, will they appear, say, appended to my current list of 10 Accounts (for a total of 20 Accounts)? If so, that would be actually be desirable, I think, because then I could take my time and move/copy the messages/templates/data, etc., that I really want to preserve, up to the "new" Accounts, etc., and then just delete the "old" ones.

TB!'s dictionaries--German language
Hello fellow tbudl subscribers! While we're talking about dictionaries, perhaps it would be well to note that there are two German language dictionaries in the International Pack: German New Spelling German Old Spelling German New Spelling uses GN as ID. German Old Spelling uses GO as ID. GE no longer works.

Sorry. I told you that I'm not very good at this stuff.
I'll have to hope that CIFnet (which is where I think I bought it
from, it rings a bell) can send me a copy of my key (because the nag
screen is already making me want to climb a tower with a rifle...).
I'm going to go have a few beers now, maybe cool off (fat chance!), and try to
figure out why companies seem to relish in making this stuff so doggone hard.
Thanks for trying, Roelef.

Registration woes, and still trying to recover from installing vs 3.5
Well, I'm trying to follow Alexander's instructions; I've backed everything up (I think), I've installed a new copy of The Bat, and I've managed to get one Account working, so at least I can make/receive posts to this mail list(unfortunately, I have 9 Accounts to go). However, it won't accept my registration key. The one I keep filed away in my EverNote database. It says it doesn't accept keys from versions 1.XXX or 2.XXX, and requires a newer key. Since I have uninstalled my old Bat, I can't get to the original e-mail from Ritlabs that contained my key. I don't even know to which of my 10 e-mail accounts it was directed. I tried to enter my 2.0 key, but it wouldn't accept it. I have faithfully upgraded (and paid for) the latest version of The Bat ever since I first started using The Bat (sometimes to my dismay).

Its whend I do "Send Queued Mails", it starts to send hundreds of mails, one by one, of course... Can't really figure out. I re-installed also. When I don't have attachments, this problem doesn't happen. -- Current version is 3.51.10 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Really strange behaviour.
I have 39 people in my address group, and when I try to send message (using Quick Template + mass mailing), it does show 39 mails in "Outbox", however, the message sending windows shows 585 messages are being sent, i.e. to each address, 15 emails are sent. This bug is really stange. it does probably has to do something with fact that i have multiple attachements in Quick Template? (when i had more attachments it showed 624 mails in queue...) Btw, the email received to my friends were in the format which could not be opened/decoded. or because i installed latest version of TB? any other hints. -- Current version is 3.51.10 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
