Nope, architect, it doesn't work for me either.

JT, Have you setup the search path in options/files for the main dictionary? How about for the custom dictionary?

Odon,
Are you saying the "download" didn't work or tip insode the PDF didn't work?

For the download to work ....
Right click on the "WORD" download ... and save file to a folder.


AS for the tip inside the PDF (for those still having trouble) ....

Go to options ...

"file tab"
..... (then) text editior
.........(then) custom dictionary file
..........(path should equal)c:\acad2000\support\sample.cus

See if you have that.
If not let us know.
