Default Dictionary Missing In Action

Iwould first like to Thank you for taking out the time for helping me. I
tried everything you suggested several times and to no avail. I still could
not access the dictionary. The language setting was adjusted and reset, and
set. The checks for Custom dictionary were checked and re-checked and still
no access. It is as though the folder for the dictionary no longer exists.
I attempted to 'run' C:\ApplicationData\Microsoft\Proof\CUSTOM.DIC The file
could not be found was the Error message. I truely appreciated the effort.

My dictionary in Word 2002 is missing. I use to access it when using
the Word application, but now it won't access. I installed a later
version of Word, 2000 for a purpose in which the newer version could
not render. I was only able to use the newer version when using
Word, so I don't think the installation of the later version had any
effect on the missing dictionary. I would like help in Accessing the
dictionary. It is listed in the drop down window for Word editing
file, but when I click on custom dictionary, and then USdictionary,
of dict nothing happens. Would you please help?
