Only SPECIALS.CMP Appears on User Dictionary List

4.00

MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

Pressing the F1 key to obtain a list of user dictionaries under the Library Spell Dictionary command displays only the default dictionary, SPECIALS.CMP, even though a number of other user dictionaries exist.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with Word Version 4.00. This problem was corrected in Word Version 5.00.

In Word Version 4.00, the workaround for the problem of obtaining a complete list of user dictionaries is to enter *.CMP under the Dictionary command and press the F1 key.
