Where is the user dictionary for SpellChecker

[Govinda]

Hi,

When the spell checker form comes up the user is given the option to "Add to dictionary", which tells the program to store that word and don't flag it as a misspelling.
If this was done accidentally by a user how would they be able to undo that selection?
Where is that information stored? Where is the file? Can it be edited?

Thank You,
Govinda

Hello Govinda,

The ignored words are stored in a custom dictionary file stored in the isolated storage of the application. You can remove the word from the word dictionary by using the following code snippet:

IControlSpellChecker controlSpellChecker= spellChecker.GetControlSpellChecker(typeof(yourTextBoxControlType));
controlSpellChecker.SpellChecker.RemoveWord("yourWord");

Notice that yourTextBoxControlType should be TextBox, RadTextBox, RichTextBox or RadRichTextBox. Regards,

Thanks Svett,

Any plans on having a way for end users to manage the words in the user dictionary?

Thank You,

Hi,
Any way I can get a list of word added by the user so that I can build a screen that they can use to remove these words?

Thank You,

Hello Govinda,

You can use the following code snippet to get all words that are added to the custom dictionary:

IControlSpellChecker controlSpellChecker = spellChecker.GetControlSpellChecker(typeof(yourControlType));
            DocumentSpellChecker documentSpellChecker = controlSpellChecker.SpellChecker as DocumentSpellChecker;
            ICustomWordDictionary customWordDictionary = documentSpellChecker.GetCustomDictionary(documentSpellChecker.SpellCheckingCulture);
            IEnumerable<string> words = customWordDictionary.Words;

We are always trying to improve the usability of the suite. Therefore, we would like to hear your feedback regarding the words that are added by the user?

Hello Dharma,

This forum thread concerns RadControls for WinForms, not RadControls for Silverlight. Please address your question in the appropriate forums to get adequate response: http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/silverlight/richtextbox.aspx.
