Mail Spell Checker Defaults to Windows NT Subdirectory (114109)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server 3.1
This article was previously published under Q114109 SYMPTOMS
If you change the path for your custom dictionary in the Registry to be
either a UNC path or a local drive path (other than the default Windows NT
subdirectory), when you start Mail, and then choose Spelling from the Edit
menu after you compose a new message, your changes are lost and Mail
changes the path back to your Windows NT default directory.
According to the Windows NT Resource Kit, Registry Entries for Microsoft
Mail, you can change the path for your custom dictionary, by changing the
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Mail\MS Proofing Tools. This does not
work.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT and Windows NT
Advanced Server. This problem was corrected in Windows NT version 3.5.
