Reply to: Check for the difference between dictionary files
December 14, 2010 at 5:00 pmI came across the same issue a while ago. In the Xmetal you can specify more than one main word list or user list.

The trick is modifying these items programmatically. I found that the settings are stored in HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareCorelXMetaLWritingTools10. Initially I also ran into the issue with modifying the UWL in the my documents folder because some people changed their my documents folder mapping. You have to find the my documents location from a registry (HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindows CurrentVersionExplorerUser Shell Folders) as well if any users may have changed the default my documents path as it is not any environmental variables.
