Is there a wrong way to take a request for help? ;) I'll be happy to do what I can if you can tell me where and/or how to look. I fired up my ubuntu box again, and the best I could find was a list of files in the various language packs, and a number of .deb files which dpkg -l refused to do anything with. On my Mac box I have apparently moved or even re-moved the packages I downloaded. I have, however, opened /Preferences/Language Settings/Writing Aids, and all I can find under User-defined dictionaries are: AM-english [English (UK)] Personal English [English(UK)] Personal Swedish [Swedish (Sweden)] standard [All] oracle [All] soffice [All] IgnoreAllList [All] I have earlier been told that the Chinese language pack does not include a dictionary, which perhaps explains the lack in this list. But it does not appear that I have loaded a Finnish dictionary. Come to that, the Swedish one appears to be a Personal dictionary, which I assume to mean it consists of words that I decide to add if the search can't find them. Actually I'll d/l the Mac versions from the LibO site and see if I can expand them and let you know. And I daresay I can d/l the linux versions, too, and see if there is any difference. //James -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
