NEW Australian English dictionary forum Microsoft Office 2007 Exclude Dictionary. Works with Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Access and Outlook.
(1 November 2007.) Now Available. The Exclude dictionary file for Office 2007 results in over 1,800 words such as organize, summarize and mom, being highlighted as incorrect spelling. Whilst designed primarily for Australian users, those in other countries such as the UK, NZ etc, may also find the file of great assistance.
If you have a computer with Windows XP, then you have Outlook Express available to use. The problem is without specific Microsoft software installed, the spell check feature of Outlook Express does not work. More recently people are finding when they install Office 2007 their spell checker in Outlook Express stops working. This page will help you if this is your problem. For those who need to spell check in the U.S.A. A solution has been made available for some years by a person who goes by the mysterious name of Vampirefo. We have included below (with permission) a link to a copy of the original spell check program. What about those who need to spell check in Australia? We recently contacted Vampirefo and he wrote a patch for his program to enable the program to spell check in Australian English. Thanks Vampirefo for making the patch available. A link to the patch is included below. For those who need to spell check in the UK and Canada. The patch supplied by Vampirefo was not specific to Australia. From what we can tell it changes the preferred spelling from the US standard to the standard suitable for other countries such as Australia, Canada, the UK. For example the patch changes the preferred spelling from color to colour and organize to organise. The patch is applied after the spell check program is installed. The patch should not be used by itself. Programs We are now making Vampirefo's programs available to JustLocal users. In order to spell check in Australian English you need to first install the Spell Check program (spell.exe) and then run the patch (SCO patch.exe). The program spell.exe adds the spell check program suitable for U.S. English to Outlook Express. The additional program SCO patch.exe is a patch (SCO patch.exe) which enables the spell check program to check Australian English spelling. This patch does not work without the spell.exe program being installed first. We
have combined both programs into a single zip file since both are
generally needed for Australian spelling. If you only need U.S. English
spelling, only use the spell.exe program. The following are the instructions to install the program and patch. Right click on the following link Outlook Express spell check.zip (Please contribute to access this file.) Right click on the downloaded zip file, select Properties, click on unblock. To
check that everything is working create a new email in Outlook Express
and test the word combinations colour/color and organise/organize. The
words colour and organise will appear as the correct spelling when the
programs are installed. Feedback We have performed basic tests on these programs and would appreciate any feedback. It should be noted that we are not in a position to change the programs in any way. We hope you find value in the spell check programs.
