Thank you for selecting Paradox Speller, our new spell checker for
Paradox for Windows!  We think you will find it powerful and easy to use.
The enclosed Paradox Speller manual should give you all the information
you need.  However, we already have a few additions and modifications to
the manual:


Sample Database
================================
A sample database is included with Paradox Speller. The sample form
NEWPAL.FSL shows how to use the programmatic interface to Paradox Speller.

An additional pushbutton is included that uses Paradox Speller to check 
just the active field. Before invoking the Speller, it verifies the field 
type and properties.


The FMS Spell Dictionary Utility
================================
The installation includes a utility program SPDICUTL.EXE which you
can use to convert an ASCII flat-file word list into a Paradox Speller 
custom dictionary. For example, you could use this utility to convert a 
Microsoft Word for Windows custom dictionary file into a Paradox
Speller custom dictionary.

SPDICUTL.EXE is a Windows-based program. You can run the program by 
double-clicking its name in the Windows File Manager, or by starting 
it from Program Manager with the following command:

    File, Run, C:\PXSPELL\SPDICUTL.EXE

For details on how to use SPDICUTL.EXE, see the on-line help file
SPDICUTL.HLP, or press the "Help" button from the main SPDICUTL form.

Network Control File/Share.exe
================================
In order to run Paradox Speller on either a network workstation or standalone machine you must configure Paradox with a multiuser environment. You will need a separate directory to use as the Network Control Directory. If your private directory is local you must also load DOS Share. The configuration file (ODAPI.CFG/IDAPI.CFG) must be modified to reflect these changes.     

STEPS:

1. Exit Paradox Speller and Paradox for Windows. 

2. If Share.exe is not loaded then exit windows, otherwise proceed to step 3. Add the following line to your autoexec.bat file then reboot the computer.

    C:\DOS\SHARE.EXE /F:4096 /L:400

There are the recommended minimum parameters.

3. Create a directory for the net file (for example, NET under your  Paradox directory). This will hold the network control file.

4. For Paradox 4.5 users, run the ODAPI configuration program. For Paradox 5.0 users, run the IDAPI configuration program. An icon should be in your Program Manager's Paradox Window. If the icon is not present, from the Program Manager, select File, Run the type:

    For Paradox 4.5:   C:\ODAPI\ODAPICFG.EXE
    For Paradox 5.0:   C:\IDAPI\IDAPICFG.EXE

It is possible these files are located in another directory and you will have to locate them by browsing.

5. Start the configuration program.

For ODAPI (Paradox 4.5): 
After the configuration program is loaded press the Options button. A Basic Options screen appears. In the space for the "Network Control File Directory", enter the full path of the directory created in step 2 (for example: "C:\PDOXWIN\NET"). Select the option for Local Share On. Press the Ok button, select File|Save from the menu, then exit.

For IDAPI (Paradox 5.0):
After the configuration program is loaded, select the Drivers page (should be selected by default). Click on "Paradox" in the Driver Name list box. Select "Net Dir" in the Parameters list, and enter the directory name created in step 2. Select the System page next. Click on Local Share and select Yes. Select File|Save from the menu, then exit.

Manual Corrections
================================
The following corrections should be made to the Paradox Speller
Manual. The changes are already in the on-line help system. In cases 
where the manual conflicts with the on-line help, the information 
in the on-line help takes precedence:

pg. 34 - "strArray_FMS array[] string "
         Should be: "strArray_FMS = array[] string"

pg. 40 - This is a complete listing of Paradox Speller files:
