I have a T Mobile MDA Vario and have been using it now for about 6 months.

When I am typing a text or email, the suggested words that come up include misspelt words etc.

How can you delete User Defined words. I have looked everywhere. The Manual seems to say that you can do something like this through phonepad. I have tried this but failed.

If I type the word Don the word that it suggests is Donaster and should be Doncaster.

I Hope this makes sense, I was considering formatting the MDA, but was scared incase I cant get all my info back.

Would appreciate any help.

Thanks

Sarah

1. welcome to XDA-Dev :)

2. the words are stored in Windows\dyncompdict.dat. You can safely delete / edit them. If you choose the latter, therere several tools to do it.

I've published several articles on this question; please make a forum / blog search for dyncompdict.dat

Than you so much for the quick reply.

This website looks excellent.

I will do that search now, and see if I can get the problem sorted.

Will get back to you.

Cheers

All sorted now, will download the MikkoPPC program when I get home and have a look at that.

Many Thanks for your help.

I have downloaded the Mikko program and saved a new dyncompdict.dat file.

When I email, it still comes up with mis-spelt words.

I have tried a soft reboot and am still getting the words.

Any Ideas?

Thanks
