I'll add more to the confusion. My WPS shell object has no entry in the
"Working Directory" field. The "Main Directories" entry in the Advanced->
Preferences->Defaults->Paths is also null. The only environmental "Clue" as to
where the spellcheck dictionaries might be is the path statement in
AUTOEXEC.BAT. And spellcheck works! I can't see why MarvKatz can't make it
fly, unless there is a goober in his path statement. sw
