Yes Ronni, there are two files. But when I drag them the TextEdit I get as the screen grab shows.

Where to now?

Yes Stuart,

That is correct.

"2. Drag the file into Text Edit's dock icon, search for and delete the words and then save it."

i.e.: Find the incorrect words you have added to Dictionary, highlight them (click & drag your cursor over them), then press the delete key.
    Go to File > Save (to save your corrections)
    Then Quit Text Edit.

The incorrect words will be deleted from Dictionary.

Cheers,
Ronni

Stuart,

Are you saying there is NO Home/Library/Spelling "LocalDictionary" in Leopard?

There has to be in Home/Library/Spelling and in the Spelling directory will be a file (possibly just one), one for each language you use.
If you speak English, the name of the file will be "en"?

Drag the "en" file to Text Edit's dock icon, search for and delete the incorrect words and then save it.

Cheers,
Ronni

I have added some incorrectly spelt words into the Mail dictionary.

I have edited the file previously but can't remember to find it. Have looked but no luck.

Where do I find it?

Hello Stuart,

1. There is a file in home/Library/Spelling "LocalDictionary" that holds all the learnt words for your language.

2. Drag the file into Text Edit's dock icon, search for and delete the words and then save it.

Cheers,
Ronni
