I'm afraid that the implementation of the OOo spellchecker is not able to handle more than the two paths that exist by default and both can contain only one entry. This is a defect that needs to be fixed. We already sent out a call for discussion about this matter on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list with not so much success. Our goal is to enable the lingucomponent to be as flexible as e.g. the template component. This means we should have *one* path setting for all linguistic tools and it should be extendable. There are some problems that make it a little bit harder: - the lingucomponent code is an orphan; - we have two different kinds of content (dictionaries and user word books) that currently use two different path settings; - we have legacies like "dictooo" that somehow prevents us from doing the right changes; fortunately Laurent Godard (the author of dictooo) has announced his support.
