Hey list,

Anyone ever added another language in OO?

I installed OO from the rpms on the k12ltsp 2.11 CD and everything works 
in english.  I have users who would like to be able to use OO in 
spanish.  I downloaded the spanish version of OO  and the spanish 
dictionary.  And when I ran the setup program from the english OO 
directory, the option to modify the installation was greyed out.  So I 
couldn't add the spanish dict.

After installing the spanish version (to a different directory) I was 
able to run OO in spanish, but it was set to use the english dicts.  
When I ran the setup program from the spanish directory it had the 
option to modify the installation, but I could find no place to add the 
dict.

What am I missing.  I copied the .aff and .dic files from the spanish 
tarball to the same locations that the other .aff and .dic files already 
were

something like:

/usr/share/OpenOffice/user/wordbook/
  (from memory so probably not quite right)

Anyway, if anyone has been down this road already...any travel hints are 
gladly accepted.  Otherwise, I'll just keep trying.

Peace,
Jimmy Schwankl
