Openoffice spell check

Hi, Mauro!

Simple. Go to here : http://fr.openoffice.org/DicOOo/index_dicooo.htm

(Yeah, it's in French, but don't worry, it's simple.)

There is a link to download this : 
http://ftp.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/contrib/dictionaries/dicooo/DicOOo.sxw

Open this document. It contains macros... Run the macros. First thing it 
asks is for what language it should run in. Pick your favorite. Then, it 
will check for updates to itself, then it will offer choices of 
languages for spelling, thesaurus, and hyphenation dictionnaries for all 
supported languages.

Yeah... I know, this is a workaround. OpenOffice.org only contains one 
dictionnary language (the one that you downloaded OOo in) when 
StarOffice contains them all. This and the number of cliparts are the 
only significant differences between OOo and StarOffice.

Enjoy,
Gilles.
