Hi guys!!!
Is there a way to access the office dictionary?
I´m making an app to write poems, so I need a huge list of words to find rhymes between a given word and others.
Office has a lot of words, but I don´t know how to get them.
Any idea?

Edwin, I think jp was more likely after a word list than the ability to spell check.
JP, I had this problem a couple of years ago when I wrote a little anagram program and I needed a large word list for that. I trawled the net, and also got a copy of the Pocket Oxford on cd - I also got a little Windows macro program, which I used to copy the entries from the Pocket Ox, and all I ended up with was a measley 23,592 words (and no pluratlisations). Let me know if you want me to email you this - it's 206kb zipped, and I can't believe that simple words can be ©
