Outlook 2003 No Custom Dictionary Exists Error
Custom Dictionary Exists ErrorHome» General Outlook opportunities» Outlook No Custom Dictionary Exists Error [message #107802] Tue, 16 January 2007 06:45 Will NiccollsMessages: 4Registered: January 2007 Junior Member This is happening for one user on a Terminal Server on Server 2003 SP1. Outlook 2003, SP2. Spellcheck is forced for each message via Group Policy. When the spellcheck runs, Outlook displays the message: "No custom dictionary exists. Would you like to create one?". On answering "OK", it displays the error: "There was an error creating the custom dictionary" Nothing is written to the event logs. Deleting and recreating the user's Outlook profile does not fix it. Other users are not experiencing this error, spellcheck works fine. I suspect there is something bad in the user profile but don't know where to look next. Ideas anyone? Thanks, Will Report message to a moderator Re: No Custom Dictionary Exists Error [message #128874] Mon, 26 February 2007 03:04 JoBaMessages: 1Registered: February 2007 Junior Member Check the *.dic files (normally it´s custom.dic) in the %userprofile%\Application Data\Microsoft\Proof folder. Move them into a temporary directory (Office should be closed), then add a new word in office to the user dictionary. Now a new custom.dic should be created. Try to refill it with the old values from the backuped file via copy and paste if you want to recycle the old data. If you get the same error again, look in the file if you see any strange entries. This steps solved the problem on my pc with the same error message you described. "Will Niccolls" wrote: > I was able to fix this by deleting the entire user profile from Terminal > Server.
