I am in need of assistance.  I am
trying to create a custom lexicon that is placed in the customs dictionary
folder, this part is no problem. After placing the custom dictionary in the
correct folder, the custom dictionary window when opened shows the new
custom dictionary, however, it is not selected. I would like to create a
script or something that will automatically select the added custom
dictionary when it is found in the custom dictionary folder. Do you have any
ideas on how I could do this?  Any feedback would be appreicated!
Thanks!

Same answer we gave you before:  Which version of Word?

In 2008, you would need to use AppleScript for that.

I do not know any more than you about AppleScript.  Sorry :-)
