AAARGH! OneNote dictionary problem...

[Carmen Gauvin-O'Donnell]

Hey folks!

I'm getting this when I try to add entries to my dictionary:

"The word Sheol cannot be added to the custom dictionary. The word contains
characters that the spelling checker cannot handle, or the dictionary is
full or unavailable."

Now I think, silly girl that I am, that I may have accidently changed the
location of the dictionary. If so, can someone remind me what the *default
location* should be so that I can reset it?

Thanks muchly!

Carmen

Sounds like the dictionary has gone to Sheol

To find spelling related info, Menu: Tools-Spelling-Spelling Options, then
click Custom Dictionaries button.
Note that you can add multiple dictionaries.

In answer to your question, the default (in XP) appears to be C:\Documents
and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Microsoft\UProof
