Hello,

I am using the English version of OO but need spellcheck in English, Dutch
and French. Tried unsuccessfully to install them with dicoo.

Any tips or clues?

Thks & rgds

Speech is conveniently located midway between thought and action, where it
often substitutes for both.

Hi,

If you have OpenOffice.org 3, English, French and Spanish dictionaries
are already installed. You need only to install Dutch dictionary.
Dictionaries are now extensions, so go to Tools > Language > More
Dictionaries Online...

Download the extension (should be named *.oxt), save it and an install
it with the extension manager "Tools/Extension Manager".
