As I know, I can´t use more than one language with this program You can use both German and Spanish. Install a Spanish dictionary from the Extensions site http://extensions.openoffice.org/ and then use Format - Character to specify the language of selected text (this allow you to have an entire document in Spanish as well as selecting a few words and saying they should be considered as written in Spanish).

Re: Languages Office Writer
1. Yes, you can. You can because it is a text document. However, that is not what I would suggest. Since you use multiple languages, I recommend you create a user created dictionary file for each language. (Help should tell you how to do this.) Then assign a language to each dictionary. (Spanish for the Spanish words,German for the German words, English for the English words) See Help for how to do this also. 2. How well do you understand the use of styles in Writer? If not well you need to learn. There are chapters on styles that will be very helpful. Dan Can you edit the dictionary to include some Spanish words?

As I know, I can´t use more than one language with this program, but I think it would be very useful if there will be a function to use more languages, at least two at the same time. It is only a idea, but maybe you find a solution?

Re: Languages Office Writer
Don, There is a way to add words to the dictionary. I use it rarely, so it may or may not be what you want. To add a word: enter your word -> after spell-check red-underlines your word, right click on the word -> Choose Add -> standard.dic The red underlining should go away, indicating the word is now in the dictionary. There may be a way to directly edit the dictionary, but I have never needed that, so I cannot help there. Hope this helps.

RE: Languages Office Writer
You can write using more than one language if you use styles. You can have a paragraph in Spanish, another in German, and another in English. To do so, create a paragraph style for each language. Or, you can mix languages by creating a character style for each. Just make sure to apply the appropriate style for your languages.
