Yes you can, and probably the easiest way to remove the extra dictionaries is to edit a file with the name dictionary.lst On my Linux system, it is at /opt/openoffice.org2.0/share/dict/ooo/dictionary.lst If you are on a Windows system, then do a file search for it, but do not take the one in your local area, which contains the dictionaries you have downloaded since. It is a simple text file. You can either remove the lines in this file you do not use, or, better, just comment them out by adding a # as the first character of the lines you do not want because then you can add them back again easily if you need them later. -- Andy Pepperdine On this mailing list help is provided by volunteers.
