WP Flags Possessives When User-Created Dictio

The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The customer created a dictionary which he named WP{WP}KB.LEX. When he puts a KB language code in a document (Shift-F8, 4, 4, KB, F7) and does a spell check, everything works fine with one exception. When it uses the KB dictionary, WordPerfect 5.1 flags all possessives as misspelled. When it uses the US dictionary, WP 5.1 ignores the possessive (apostrophe s) at the end of words. Solutions: The program is working as designed in this case. WP only recognizes the supported language codes (e.g., UK, OZ, SP, etc.). Renaming a user-made dictionary to one of the supported language codes will allow WP to recognize and spell check possessives correctly.
