Windows Mail Spelling Dictionary File

Is it possible to place the Windows Mail spelling dictionary file on the
Desktop with VISTA so that I can keep an eye on it and edit it as I add
words to it? I did that with XP and it was great having immediate access.
But there does not seem to be a *.dic file for Windows Mail any more. Does
it have a different extension?

Thanks.

Doug

Re: Windows Mail Spelling Dictionary File

The user dictionary is located at
C:\Users\(youraccount)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail
It is names UserDictionary.lex

You should be able to create a shortcut to it...
