Hi Cor, Hi Marcin, Hi André, thanks for your answers. I'm happy to see that the limit of entries in the user dictionary has been increased in OOo 3.0.1 to 30000. I also agree with Marcin and André that the dictionary extensions supported since OOo 3.0.0 would be a better solution for my problem. Unfortunately we still have OOo 2.4.x installed on the most of our systems, so none of the two solutions could help in this case. As there are only a view people complaining about our current solution (the 3 user dictionary files), I think there is currently no pressing need to search for another workaround and it's worth to wait until OOo 3 has reached munich :-).

May be I will ask you later on how to create a hunspell dictionary when I try to create such a dictionary extension (I guess that a hunspess dictionary is more performant than the plain text dict-Files !?). > Or .. reading your macro code, it should be enough to place a test.aff file > beside your test.dic.

I also noticed, that dict files in other dictionary extensions contain more than 2000 words and the structure of this file is very simple. So it could be a workaround to create a dict file with standard unix tools and drop down the idea of using the OOo-API. best regards, Christoph --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
