Location of user dictionary (spelling)
« on: November 24, 2013, 12:41:49 am »
The user guide tells that the user dictionary is the file 'userdic.tlx' in the EA install directory. However, I can't find the words I added in that file (after changing the extension temporary into .txt). Also the file date is not an actual one.

Where can I find the user dictionary?

Sounds like the help is a little out of date. Current versions of Windows won't allow EA to save to the install directory unless elevated so you'll find the file at %appdata%\Sparx Systems\EA\userdic.tlx.

Now corrected. This change will be visible in the next release.
