Re: [dev] cannot open old binary autocorr.dat
Hi Mathias, Get an OOo 1.x (or SO7) installation with this autocorr.dat file. Add a new autocorrection entry in the dialog and then find a new autocorr.dat file in your user profile that should be readable by newer versions of OOo. i had to do the following steps: - copy old autocor1031.dat into user profile - open oo 1.1.5 writer - open autocorrection dialog - delete autocor1031.dat from user profile - add a new entry in the dialog - close dialog - oo 1.1.5 will now write all entries to a new file - rename autocor1031.dat to autocor_de-DE.dat - copy into oo 3.2 user profile btw: the mentioned *.dat file size was 3mb, now 9kb ;-) Regards Oliver -- GnuPG key 0xCFD04A45: 8822 057F 4956 46D3 352C 1A06 4E2C AB40 CFD0 4A45 signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
