Vista - Custom Dictionary

Custom Dictionary

I am using build 14 - Vista Ultimate.

When I try to ADD a word to the custom dictionary, either during the send
process, or under
tools-options-spelling-custom dictionary-edit, I can't do it.

During ''send'', if I click ADD, it says
the spell check of this document was halted, do you want to send anyway?

Under the tools-options attempt I try to add a word - nothing happens when I
click ADD.
I don't seem to be able to delete words either.

Re: Custom Dictionary

Yes, I see both of those spelling bugs, which did not exist
in build 12.
When I try to 'Add' a new word during a spell check, it exits
spell check with the warning "The spell check of this document
was halted, do you want to send anyway?"
Also, when I check the words in the custom dictionary, the
new word was not added.

Thank you for the report. This is an issue what we've seen and we're working

Re: Custom Dictionary

Must not be common to all possible installed scenarios or a function of use.

Originally I thought I had the issue...could not 'add' via Tools/Options/Spelling/Edit

Once a new message(email and news) was created in Mail and News, spell checked(manually and later automatically) I was able to add
one from within the message and one via the edit option(attached).

Re: Custom Dictionary

Still no joy here, although I have created dozens of new and
replied messages. Running Vista 32-bit.

Re: Custom Dictionary

FYI-
Since my OP - I added Vista Home Premium 64 bit to a spare HD. Custom
Dictionary will allow me to add and remove words, as will sending a message.
I D/Ld WLM build 12, then updated to 14. Since I never used Windows Mail on
the new drive, nothing was imported from it.
I booted to HP 32bit - still no luck.

I have no idea why the 64 bit works and the 32 doesn't.

Re: Custom Dictionary

So far the common thread for this bug seems to be Vista 32-bit.
