| I don't suppose you'll think me kind when you read this answer, but
anyway...
The dictionaries required for V3.0 are completely different from those
used in earlier versions.
So if you had anything other than the standard dictionary for your
language, then you need to obtain the V3.0 equivalent version and get
it installed. Either as a part of this installation, or manually, you
then need to add some lines to a file called LOOKUP.DAT in the
directory pointed to by the LCI$LEXICONS logical. Then the
dictionaries will magically reappear.

PS Don't ask me what the "process" is for geting these new
dictionaries, I would guess that was a Product Management question, and
PM aren't renowned for their presence here :-)

| Regina,
To add to what GAP said the dictionaries changed drastically between
WPS-PLUS v3.x and WPS-PLUS v4.x so a lot of customers who upgraded
to use the WPS-PLUS v4 for ALL-IN-1 v2.4 option kit to get the sexy
new proportional printing and stuff were not too happy (an
understatement) when they lost their legal and medical dictionaries.
You might try asking your question in the WPS-PLUS conference.
also since you aren't in the U.S contacting product management might
not be too easy - Is there an ALL-IN-1 product manager for France?
Regards,
Andrew.D.Wicks

| 235.3 | will try WPS-PLUS as well | LEMAN::REGINA | Carrie's in the carrot land | Tue Mar 17 1992 09:25 | 17 |
| Well,
I sent a mail to Mister Colquitt, but the other side of the pond is
far away so an answer might take some time ;-).
I don't know of any country product managers, anyway in Switzerland
we belong to DACH (all german), but as the western part is talking
french I never really know who likes to care for us!!!
However, I still feel that the release notes or installation guide
of ALL-IN-1 should mention this, so that lexicon kit research can be
done as prerequesite instead of hot life repair.
regards,
Regina

| 235.4 | SPD? | IOSG::PYE | Graham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's Apprentice | Tue Mar 17 1992 10:26 | 7 |
| I made a lot of fuss about this with Product Management, in order to
ensure that "a process was put in place" to update existing customers
with the new format lexicons.
Perhaps they put something in the SPD?

| 235.5 | WPS-PLUS 493.3 is the solution | LEMAN::REGINA | Carrie's in the carrot land | Tue Mar 17 1992 16:11 | 3 |
| If it is of any help to someone else: WPS-PLUS note 493.3 is
just what I was looking for (note written after my initial
thorough scanning of existing notes ;-)...). /rhr

| 235.6 | Just announced internally | TIMMII::RDAVIES | An expert Amateur | Thu Mar 19 1992 13:19 | 4 |
| Look at MAGIC::WPS-PLUS. note 405. It gives the location of the
internal FT version of the new lexicons.
