About the user dictionary
You cannot add or delete words from the main dictionaries, but you can add or
delete words from a custom user dictionary that supplements the main dictionaries.
By default, this user dictionary is contained in a file called userdct.txt, which is
located in the UserData folder underneath the application root directory.
To use a different user dictionary:
1
Open the Options > Settings > Spelling pane to view Spell Check options.
In the Main Dictionaries box, select every dictionary that you want to use. By
default, dictionaries for American English and HTML are installed.
•
To spell check the content of HTML tags against an HTML dictionary, select
HTML. This does not check the validity of your HTML code. To validate your
HTML code, see
•
To add a dictionary to the Main Dictionaries box, copy a dictionary (CLX) file
to the Spelling folder under the application root directory.
The dictionary is added to the Main Dictionaries box in the Options >
Settings > Spelling pane.
In the User Dictionary box, accept the default entry or specify an alternate
location and text file to supplement the main dictionaries. For more information,
see "About the user dictionary" on page
In the Options box, select every option that you need.
For a description of each option, see
183.
Set the maximum number of suggestions—up to 20—that the spelling checker
should generate for a misspelling. This affects the number of suggestions that
appears in the Spell Check dialog box or when you right-click a marked word.
This option is only available if you select Mark Spelling Errors in the Options box.
Click Apply.
In the Options > Settings > Spelling pane, in the User Dictionary box, enter or
browse to an alternative location and file.
