Sounds like you simply lost your dictionary file: DCTCUST
variable should tell you where the file in use is and it's
name, browse to it in Windows Explorer and make sure it's
there, not in a read-only folder, and you can open and save
it in Windows Notepad.
Brad's suggestion and fully patching LT2005 would not hurt
either.
