Need MS office help

[Maveric169]

I need the dictionary for the spell checker for another program. Where can I find it?

 

[NerdUprising]

as in you want to integrate that dictionary into another program - or do you just want to look up words and thesaurus and stuff?

If the latter, id suggest just using an online dictionary/thesaurus, like m-w.com (merriam-webster site)

 

[Maveric169]

no I need to intergrate/copy it into another program

I think they are stored in *.DIC files for Office. Easiest way would probably to get the dictionaries from a open-source project like Openoffice.org or something like that.

Thanks for the post!! I found a .dic on that openoffice site. now if I could only get the ieSpell to work right I would be set!
