2724.0. "LLV Dictionary" by BLG03::CAVALLI () Tue May 18 1993 15:24

    Hi,

    I have a customer who is running ALL-IN-1 Italian V3.0 (standard 
    upgrade from V2.3).  He is supposed
    to be using the English Lexicon dictionary as previous ALL-IN-1
    version, but all he has at the moment is the Italian Lexicon.
    He wants the English.

    In another customer site who is running the ALL-IN-1 Italian V3.0
    (standard Installation) we have the English and the Italian
    lexicon!!!???

    I'd like to know how can I do to have two dictionaries without buy
    anything.

    Thanks & Regards

    Chiara

2724.1A WPS-PLUS questionAIMTEC::WICKS_AAlphatraz - Coming Summer 93Tue May 18 1993 17:288
    Chiara,
    
    I think dictionaries are part of WPS-PLUS and would be more properly
    discussed in the WPS-PLUS conference.

2724.2Not a technical question (yet!!!)IOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeWed May 19 1993 18:4310
    It's a local marketing / selling decision how your customer gets the
    later versions of the lexicons to replace the ones they had before. I
    don't know whether we charge them for this or not. You might like to
    ask someone in the customer's sales office (unless that's you of
    course!!)
    
    Having found out how to sell them the lexicon, I posted details of how
    to actually get it working earlier in this conference.

2724.3only Italian dict. deliveredVAXRIO::CALL_MARCIAWed Jun 02 1993 19:0224
    Hello Chiara,
    
    being a member of the ISE group who produced Italian V3 of ALL-IN-1 I
    can only second what Graham says: It was a country marketing decision
    which dictionaries come with V3. For Italy this was in fact only the
    Italian dictionary. 
    You say your customer upgraded from V2.3, so let me clarify, that the
    current way of spellchecking is new since WPS-PLUS V4.0 and has been
    included into ALL-IN-1 with V3.0 for the first time. Before that only a
    few countries had spellcheckers with local dictionaries at all. So, I
    assume that the Italian version 2.3 did not have an Italian dictionary
    at all and therefore only could use the English one in V2.3.
    
    The dictionaries are produced by a third party company which implies
    that we are not allowed to give "copies" of them away for free! The
    only way I can see is that the customer buys another product which is
    called "International Lexicons" (or similar) and will provide all the
    dictionaries the customer wants. I'm not sure if one can receive only
    one or two of them, but maybe. This additional product should be
    available through the usual Digital delivery channels.
