384.0. "Thesaurus problem" by IOSG::MAURICE (IOSG ain't a place to raise a kid) Wed Apr 01 1992 10:03

    Using WPS-PLUS V4.0 there seem to be a few words that have gone missing
    from the Thesaurus. For example the word "gullible" is missing. I
    wonder if some of you could check and reply.
    
    Thanks

    Stuart,

    I am sure that the word 'gullible' appearing in your note has little to
    do with the date on which it is entered does it?

    I don't have WPL-PLUS V4.0 so I can't check for you.

    Keep smiling,
    don

384.3Actual questions...LARVAE::JORDANChris Jordan, Digital Services - Office Consultant, LondonFri Apr 03 1992 12:5910
    But I have a real Thesaurus problem!!
    
    	My customer here in England has been using WPS-PLUS for the last 4
    years. It has jsut been brought to the notice of their strategy team
    (by one of the board members who has just been given his ALL-IN-1
    account!!) that the Thesaurus in V2.4 is American (i.e. it does COLOR
    rather than COLOUR).
    
    a) Is there a BRITISH Thesaurus for ALL-IN-1 V2.4??
    b) Is there a BRITISH Thesaurus for ALL-IN-1 V3.0??

	Chris,

	I have asked this question previously and the answer is that there is 
	no British Thesaurus for either version of ALL-IN-1. This has been SPR'd
	in the past.

	Jill

	P.S. How does your customer like British being called a "dialect" in V3.0 
	installation??
384.5International lexicons availableTIMMII::RDAVIESAn expert AmateurWed Apr 08 1992 16:559
    Whilst a thesaurus may not be availalbe in BRITISH, the british
    lexicons (along with the other language versions) are being field
    tested and are available. It's pointed to in the WPSPLUS notesfile note
    405.0
    
    
    I've installed it, and it spells colour and realise correctly.
