Tracking Down FrontPage's Custom Dictionary


Quick Tips provided by Inside Microsoft FrontPage, a ZD Journals publication. Click here for a free issue Non-MS link. To receive the Tip of the Week in e-mail, click here Non-MS link.

On occasion, you may want to edit the file where FrontPage stores words you add to its custom dictionary. For example, you might want to delete an erroneous entry. Or maybe back up the file.

The file you need to edit is custom.dic, but don't look in your FrontPage directory. FrontPage actually shares the same dictionary files as your other Office applications, so the file is located in C:\Windows\Msapps\Proof\ (where C is your hard drive letter).

Custom.dic is a plain text file, so you can edit it with any word processor.
