Re: Windows Installer Aspell prob
Hi Joost, I think you have had both an Aspell installation for the current user as well as a system-wide installation. Sorry I don´t think so, since this problem is reproducible with a virgin and clean XPPro image - only installation of LyX chosing for current user right from the start leaves a working spell checker here.

To solve this, you should reinstall the dictionaries. Joost Joost, I don't think that's it. Besides what Tom said about a clean installation, I have both a system-wide Aspell (C:\Aspell) and a single-user installation (C:\Documents and Settings\what a handsome guy I am\Application Data\Aspell). Both have iso-8859-1.cset installed in ...\Dictionaries. The single-user installation does not have a folder named data; the system-wide installation does, and it contains iso8859-1.dat, but not iso-8859-1.cset. Could something be causing LyX (or Aspell) to use an incorrect path? /Paul
