    Mtext error

    Apparently, if you don't install the multi-language dictionaries, every time you go to make an Mtext object, an error occurs which says "Unable to find main dictionary. Could not start speller." This is quite annoying, is there a way to suppress the message?

    Make sure to install the dictionaries seems to be the only way.
    Or you could simply copy the .dct files from the DVD to:
    C:\Program Files\AutoCAD 2009\Support

    But still it should not give this problem as there is an option to not
    install them.

    Or if you already have an older installation of AutoCAD on your computer just copy the .dct files over from there.

    I did it the long way and found the DVD and copied from it. Thanks fellas. It took that error away.
