Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 14838
spell checker does not retain or recognize user defined words in dictionary

If you spell check a document, when adding words like town names or last names, the spell checker does not retain them and continues to flag them as incorrect words. Linux RH 8.0 Installed in home directory Default install en US lang I have observed this in OOo 1.1b1 and 1.1b2 Tested the same doc in SO 6.1b and it works properly.
Hi, Unfortunately, the user dictioanry is not part of lingucomponent, so this issue actually needs to be looked at by the sw (wordprocessor) project and not lingucomponent. I am reassigning this to them. Kevin
Hi, I can confirm this issue. I wrote a small document and added my home town and county and found they were both marked as incorrect later in that same document. If I look in user/wordbook/standard.dic (using "strings standard.dic" you can clearly see both the town name and the county name in the dictionary. So the standard.dic is getting the words, they are just not being checked against. Perhaps some problem in linguistic in spelldsp.cxx ? Kevin

Yes, this is a known bug. This is already fixed by TL in an internal OO 1.1 RC build.
I have this issue on OOo1.1 Beta2 for Windows too.
That's right. The problem is platform-indpendent. And also the fix we made for 1.1 RC ;-)
Fix noe available in OO 1.1 RC.
