mba — I got the dictionaries working. I have not rebooted the system at all
since my above post, so that is not a reason for the change. I have opened and
reopened OOo 3 beta many times since my last post, never finding the
dictionaries I installed being listed as available. However, OOo 3 beta is now
reading the language files noted in my last post and listing the dictionaries I
want as avaiable. The only thing that I have changed since that post is
reassigning the extensions in Windows XP.

Although I had selected to have OOo 3 beta be my default program to open MS
Office documents during installation, there were no changes made to the
extension associations. That is, all OOo extensions and MS Office extensions
were still assigned to open with OOo 2.3.1, including all OOo configuration file
extensions. I don't know if the associations were left unchanged by design
because OOo 3 is a beta or if this is a bug in OOo 3. Moreover, all of the OOo
configuration file associations still had "OpenOffice.org 1.1 configuration
file" as their description, although all linked to OOo 2.3.1. This seemed an
overdue correction.

After reassociating all OOo file extensions in Windows XP, I then tried opening
several .doc, .ods, and other OOo associated files to make sure that they now
opened in OOo 3 beta rather than OOo 2.3.1. They did. I also typed several
Spanish and several English words into a new document and once again tried the
SpellChecker. This time, the dictionaries I wanted were the only ones available.
I was very happy.
