Hi,
MS-Word has the option to have several user dictionaries. That option is used a lot by our clients. These company wide dictionaries, contain names of clients, places, and terms.
Is it possible to add more than one userdictionary. There is only one writable, but multiple read only dictionaries.

Hi, it doesn't do it out of the box, but yes you should be able to with some custom code. http://keyoti.com/kb/Def...ew&questId=129&catId=62
That example shows how to put the user dictionary in a database, but it should serve as a simple illustration of how to customize how the user dictionary works. So in your case you'd want ReadAll to read from each dictionary file and put it in the word list. And you'd want AddWord to write to the main file. If you have any trouble, let me know which language you're using and I'll try it out.

Thanks. That worked great!
However, would it now be a great feature if you could read and use the MS-Word dictionaries by default?

Great. Do you mean, automatically find them and offer them? You know that we can read Word custom dictionaries because they're just text files like our user dictionary? -your feedback is helpful to other users, thank you!Evaluation Downloads - http://keyoti.com/products-your feedback is helpful to other users, thank you!

Yep, just adding another option called something like "UseMSWordCustomDictionaries". That would get the MS word custom dictionaries and use these. You can find them in the registry tree: "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing Tools\1.0\Custom Dictionaries"
