There's something about this that I don't understand. If you uninstall
Kurzweil, how does it keep the same settings if you put another version on
later? Take care.

Well, then, if you're getting a new machine, definitely use the back up
settings item in the settings menu. Install your v9 and then use its restore
settings, found in the same menu, to put all your settings onto the new
machine. That includes spell check and corrections lists. No need to go
hunting for all the stuff. If you use those two items, back up and then
restore, the program will do it for you. As for an aggregate dictionary for
ranked spelling, with contributions from many, the issue I guess I see with
that is that people may not want everything that others have put into their
dictionaries. But the original corrections lists were compiled in this
way. They took corrections from people and I'm not sure where else and
compiled that into the corrections list that shipped with the product back
when that feature was first introduced. You could always write to Kesi
and suggest that they could consider doing something similar for the spel
check list.
And I also do have confirmation that all that stuff that is saved in various
places under documents and settings, user name etc, is not overwritten by a
new installation, nor is it zapped if you uninstall the product. So if
you do put v9 over b8, or if you uninstall v8 before installing v9, your
user created or user enhanced stuff should still be there.
