Hello MAU, >> So I had a look at your registry settings (thanks for sending those >> along) and noticing that while your settings had a key with the >> correct locale id for each language ( 1034 for Spanish-Spain, 1033 >> for English-United States) the registry key my file was registered in >> had a key of "7", obviously not a valid locale.
> Did you have CSAPI German selected as the speller language when you > created the user dictionary? No, there was no option for that. Only a list of languages, and, funny enough, "german" three times. But I tested all of them, and none worked. >> What finally made it work was something you mentioned in one of your >> earlier mails about the subject, namely "some code in the first line >> of the .dic file".

Yes, that is well possible. The '#LID 0' does, however, not appear in my list of words. >> So I think it's even more easy to >> >> - create a textfile with the line "#LID 0" in it > Yes, it seems easier but with the 'risk' of having to create several > Registry keys manually.

Because I have: > > #LID 1033 1 89 (in accent.tlx) > #LID 24941 (in correct,tlx) > #LID 1033 1 1017 (in Ssceam.tlx) > #LID 24941 (in userdic.tlx) Neither of them...alongside with the new german dic I also created an "American English" one, and when I looked into that file it had the '#LID 0' in it. So to me it seems like this is a miracle that only the developers can work out. I don't even think we can file a useful bug report, because what we did and what worked does not follow a logic principle. Maybe let's file a report for the greyed out buttons, and then we check if these are working correctly and creating the right registry keys. Can you do this? You are much quicker as I am I guess...
