Thanks! DG
www.puzzlers.org has numerous word lists & dictionarys in text format that can be downloaded. I recommend you insert them into some form of database. I have most of them in an Access db and it's 95 MB. That's a worse case as I also have some value-added stuff, the OSPD alone would be a lot smaller. <http://www.puzzlers.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=solving:wordlists:start> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
