Making Custom Dictionaries More Accessible?

E

e125

I work with Latin texts and want to add works to my customized Latin
dictionary. I know of only one way to access this dictionary (i.e., Tools
menu, click Options, and then click the Spelling & Grammar tab etc). Is there
a way I can set up a button the tool bar or create a macro to access this
immediately without this 5 step process? I have looked at the customization
feature in Word and have not figured this out. Any suggestions would be
appreciated.

Thank you

Hi,

a custom dictionary is an ordinary txt-file.

To access it, try something like:

Sub LatinDictionary()
Shell "c:\windows\notepad.exe c:\test\latin.dic", vbNormalFocus
End Sub

Don't worry about sorting alphabetically.
It seem's it doesn't matter.
