Act! Pro V20 Template Spelling checker locked to english

[F.Klaassen]

As you can see in the Title of this post. I'm kind off stuck the language for the word templates are stuck on English and we want them on dutch. 
I have even tried removing the english spelling checker from Word but it might use the one from Act! is there a dutch .dic file some where?

I'll add some pictures later today.

Hope some one can help me with this problem. Thanks for any assistance you all can give me!

Act! has never been released with a NL localisation unfortunately - so I don't believe we've ever provided the .dic files in Dutch.

However, you can add custom dictionaries to the spell checker. I've googled around a little, and managed to track down an NL dictionary file (originally provided for some other software).

If you download the file attached to this post then follow the steps below:

1.  Put the "nl-NL.dic" file in your Act Installation folder (e.g. C:/Program Files (x86)/Act/Act for Windows    -  or wherever you chose to install Act).
2. Open Act and go to Tools > Preferences > Communication > Spelling preferences
3. Next to select user dictionary, click browse and browse to the "nl-NL.dic" file.
4. Click OK.

This should enable dutch spell checking in the Act! Word Processor - though it will also accept English.

Bear in mind, this dictionary file was not created by Swiftpage, so I can't vouch for the quality of the spelling - use at your own risk
