Hi, Just upgraded to Vista, re-installed The Bat and have noticed that I can no longer add words to the dictionary (right click on a word Bat says is wrongly spelt, and go 'Add to Dictionary' and the word is not added, instead it stays as underlined indicating it is wrongly spelt). Is this a bug in The Bat, or is it a case of Vista's new 'cannot allow write access to C:\Program Files for a non-admin user' policy (I note that this is where the dictionary files are located)?
Also on the subject of dictionaries, when I go into the Spell Checker menu, I select 'British English' from the Language menu (which is fine), but when I go into the Dictionaries option, I see the language of the Dictionary file (correct.tlx) is American English. I can't see any way to change this to British (I'm sick of The Bat marking "maximise" as wrong and suggesting "maximize" instead). Can anyone help? The Bat may just be trying to have a bet each way - if I type these four words into a message: minimise minimize maximise maximize The Bat marks minimize as wrong, and maximise as wrong. One of the differences between British and American English is that British uses "S" instead of "Z". You can see by these 4 examples, The Bat is not being consistent in its spellings. It is saying that one word spelt with a "Z" is wrong but another word spelt with an "S" is also incorrect. It seems to me that the British English dictionary in The Bat has an incorrect mixture of British and American spellings inside it. If anyone knows of a better British English dictionary then the default Bat one, please let me know. Australian English would be even better :) -- Regards, Secret Using The Bat! v3.99.24 on Windows Vista :flag-australia: ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.99.24 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
