question concerning Word 4.0: If you have two dictionaries- say an english and
a french one. How do you get them both running in Word 4.0??? I see it in
the list of dictionaries but can't open or use it. --

You can use MacTool or ResEdit or any simialr program. After this you will be able to open the dictionary using the open command while in the spelling mode. If anyone has any Word dictionaries other than the standard and British could you drop me a line. I do a lot of work with other languages and would like to check my spelling in other than english using the computer. Alex W.

After posting this then rereading I noticed that I transposed two letters. The change should be from DIC5 to DICT. Alex W. Lynn State Univeristy of New York at Buffalo V141GXZN@UBVMS.CC.BUFFALO.EDU
