I"m using W/ME (English), Office2000 (UK), and Office2000 Proofing Tools to add proofing for Dutch, French and German. Within Office this works without a hitch for all languages.
A third party product I also deploy, EasyWebEditor, uses the office proofing environment for spell checking, by accessing the LEX and DLL-files through registry reference. This goes like a breeze for Dutch and French, but I have not been able to get German up and running, for the simple reason that I don't know the names of the German files corresponding to:
MSSP_NL.LEX, MSSP_FR.LEX (dictionary) (MSSP2_EN.LEX for English)
MSPNL32.DLL and MSPFR32.DLL (engine) (MSSP232.DLL for English)
For German I expected to find similar files with *GE* in the name, but was not successful. All files I did try, produced errors or application hang-ups. Note again, that within Office all is well with German.
I would be very grateful if somebody could point me in the right direction.
Regards, Willem
