Problem identified: when a user installs a new version of OOo, previously
existing OOo files in C:\Documents and
Settings\[user]\...\OpenOffice.org2\user\wordbook are preserved. In my case, for
some unknown reason, the DicOOo.lst file that was preserved contained the path
to an old DicOOo.sxw file from a version 1.9.x install of OOo (that had been
erased). I suspect that (1) the Install dictionaries wizard used the (erroneous)
path in the preserved DicOOo.lst file, (2) the wizard could not find the
DicOOo.sxw file on the OOo version 2.0.x file tree, and (3) silently terminated
without reporting a warning or an error.

Suggestions: (1) Make sure that the OOo install program writes the current path
to the DicOOo.sxw file in the C:\Documents and settings\...\wordbook\DicOOo.lst
file. (2) Correct the code to the Install dictionaries wizard to report a
meaningful error if it fails to find the DicOOo.sxw file. (3) Update the
documentation for DicOOo to mention this as a possible problem and explain
workaround strategies (i.e., manually open DicOOo.sxw or manually correct the
path in the DicOOo.lst file).

I hope this helps.  Several users have reported similar problems in the past as
issues and in the OOo forums. DicOOo is very useful and I (for one) appreciate
your continued dedication to OOo and DicOOo.
