Read words in built-in dictinoary

Hi,

I would like to random search the dictionnary for word from 6 to 10 letters long.

Does anybody have an Idea ?

No can do. Three workarounds for you:

1) Use a custom.dic - its just a text file for Open #1 type
statements

2) Open any document and search

3) Randomly generate a string of characters 6-10 long and accept the
spelling suggestion until you get a legal word.

I thought of it.
But I fear it will take too long... "until you get a legal word".

I was hopping to receive an answer such as :

for each wd in objspellchecker.word
if ( (len(wd)>6) AND (len(wd)<10) ) then
...
next

But it seems there's not way to directly read its database
I'm going to look for any dictionnary database.

Thanks.
