Addind a Dictionary

Does anyone know how to add a medical dictionary to Word? I have purchased a
medical dictionary but cannot figure out how to get Word to communicate with
it or vice versa.
Thanks a bunch!

Didn't your software come with instructions? (I would think that anyone who
creates an add-in would tell you how to install it.)

Which version of Word are you using?

My Office is Office 2007. The company I bought it from had sent instructions
for Windows XP as the oP. I am in Windows Vista...but my problem is the
dictionary itself maybe. I have it in Office and have selected it to be my
default dictionary. But it doesn't work that way..I always come up with the
dictionary that came with Office.

Thanks for your help\\\

Take it up with the company that supplied the dictionary. Surely they will
be better placed to advise on how their dictionary works in conjunction with
Word than correspondents in a newsgroup who don't even know anything about
the anonymous dictionary?

OK, that makes sense to me. Just thought that I perhaps could get some
advice on how to install an add-on and since the add-on was going into Word,
that someone could advise. Thought maybe someone has had the problem and was
familiar with it. So sorry for wasting your time.
