UserDictionary file path set to a file in the solution (not C:\...)? - RapidSpell Web ASP.NET - Forum

Hello RapidSpell support,

I am trying to add the functionality of adding words to a user's dictionary, which works for me if I set the path to a local folder (such as C:\ drive). However that would not be of much use when I upload the solution. How can I set that path to the user's dictionary txt file on the server, like any other file or page? So, for example if the UserDictionary file was in the same folder as the page which has the rapidspellweblauncher, the file path would be just "UserDictionary.txt", or if it was in the parent folder it would be "../UserDictionary.txt".
Or if this is not how it works, how do I reference that file on the server?
Thank you very much in advance.

Kind regards,

Dan

Hello Jim,

Thank you very much for such a quick reply. I've tried setting the path to the root of the application using ~/, but unfortunately it still points to a folder on the local drive.

My user dictionary file is located in the folder 'Spelling' in the root of the application, so I've set the path as following: However I still get a similar error: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Windows\SysWOW64\inetsrv\~\Spelling\UserDictionary.txt'. when I try to open the spell checker.

Here is my radspellweblauncher component:



Strangely enough, if you look at the rapidspellwebpage path, which points to a folder within the solution, it works perfectly. Any idea on how this could be fixed/solved?

By the way, unfortunately the link that you've sent me, is not functional anymore.

Thanks again in advance.

Kind regards,

Dan

Hello Jim,
