The spell checkers have their own files, yes. However, LyX also stores personal word lists under the name pwl_<language>.dict (I am not sure it is used by all spell checker backends, but it is at least by aspell, hunspell and enchant). These files are located in your user directory (see Help > About LyX for where this is). On some OSes (Mac I think), each major version has its own user directory (with a version suffix). You might find your files in the one of 2.3 and then copy them to the 2.4 directory. Ideally, these files should be copied over by the installers on upgrading, as we do with other files. -- Jürgen -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
