There's some confusion what that option really does. For the longest time I thought the list was permanent but its function buggy. But best I can tell from Help 2.0, the persistence lasts only as long as some component of OO remains open, including Quickstart. That means the list has to be reprimed fairly often. And I also see no way to build a file of the list words, as the list does not copy out of the text box. Seems to me to be the crippling of a great function. p. -- Using OOo 2.0 rc2 on Win XP sp2. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
