[Solved] Specialized Dictonaries

[paladin++]

I need to create several specialized dictionaries, technical, training, and fiction. I was able to do this prior to 4.1.5 and in the portable version but I cannot find how to do this in the 4.1.5 version. These will all be the same language (English US) but with different technical needs.

Running Windows 10 installed version.

thanks

3 - Working with Text
4 - Formatting Pages
5 - Printing, Exporting, Faxing and E-Mailing
6 - Introduction to Styles
7 - Working with Styles
8 - Working with Graphics

10 - Working with Templates
11 - Using Mail Merge
12 - Tables of Contents, Indexes and Bibliographies
13 - Working with Master Documents
14 - Working with Fields
15 - Using Forms in Writer
16 - Customizing Writer – Keyboard shortcuts.

When a pop-up window opens, click the Help button for extensive help on that function - it is often more comprehensive than the manual.
