Hi,

I'm using dictionaries from basic code and noticed a problem. When the
search word from a dictionary entry is inserted into a writer doc the
encoding is not shown correctly.

Try this in a german localized version:

sub encError
        dls = createUnoService("com.sun.star.linguistic2.DictionaryList")
        dic = dls.getDictionaryByName("soffice.dic")
        entries = dic.getEntries()
        msgbox entries(16).getDictionaryWord()
end sub

In a german language version of OO.o 1.1.x this should read
"Bemaßungslinien" but the char "ß" is not converted correctly. This
holds true for the german  OO.o2.0-RC1/Windows, too.

Is this worth filing an issue or is it a pilots error?

It sure sounds like an error (so please file an issue): XDictionaryEntry.getDictionaryWord returns a UNO string, which is Unicode, so no excuse to garble an "ß" (and Basic's msgbox command should also be fully Unicode...).

TIA,
Marc
