Hi,
as far as I understand this, there is no real dictionary.
A real dictionary would be a list of words,
unscientifically speaking.
Word's dictionary is a mixture of words, parts of words
and rules. To get a word from the dictionary is therefore
almost impossible. It might be possible, nevertheless,
to use word in the background and have it check,
whether a sequence of letters could be a word.
Of course, depending on the effort, almost everything
seems to be possible, though results are often only
illusions of success.

Wow, that's interesting. I think the only dictionary you
can "access" through VBA is the custom. I have no idea
what it is that your game does, but you could certainly
add a ton of words to the custom dictionary. I'm dying to
see how this all turns out for you.
