Hi Roelof, thank you so much for your great help! > TB has its own library set, you don't need to create another one.

Yes, yes, I know that... :-D BH>> and the file UserDic.TLX itself contains only the word I've added BH>> to it. > That's its function. Oh, but in that case I must surely be able to manually copy all the words in my own .dic file into UserDic? My .dic file contains thousands of words that I've added to it over the years, and then I wouldn't have to add each word again to TB UserDic every time it comes up. Am I right? BH>> Would it be better to make them all into one big file? > No, TB would have no means to distinguish between languages. But TB UserDic now contains words from different languages. Hence my question if I should use one dictionary for each language to add new words to. If I add them all to UserDic, how does TB then distinguish between those languages? BH>> And why can TB only spell check this mail in BrE and not in AmE?? > Because you haven't installed American English? Of course I've installed it, that's why I wonder. > does your 'speller' directory contain the files ssceam.tlx and > ssceam2.clx? Yes, it does. > BTW Did you install all the languages in the international pack? Not quite all, only the ones I need: 12 languages. So, why can't TB spell check this mail in AmE when I've installed it? -- Best regards, Britt Henrikson Using TB! 2.10.03 on Win2000 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
