Description
The SET DICTIONARY command causes the replacement of the current dictionary with the one specified by the dictionary parameter. The current dictionary is used for the built-in spell-check feature in 4D (for more information, refer to the 4D Design Reference manual).
The modification of the current dictionary is reflected in all the processes of the database for the session.
By default, 4D uses the dictionary corresponding to the application language. Five main dictionaries are available: English, French, German, Spanish and Norwegian.
In dictionary, pass the number of the dictionary to use. You can use one of the following predefined constants, which are found in the "Dictionaries" theme:
| Constant | Type | Value |
| English Dictionary | Longint | 69632 |
| German Dictionary | Longint | 131584 |
| Spanish Dictionary | Longint | 196608 |
| French Dictionary | Longint | 262144 |
| Norwegian Dictionary | Longint | 589824 |
In addition, numerous variants are available for each of the four main languages. Here is the full list of all variants supported by the command. To load a variant, pass its value directly in the dictionary parameter:
