Description of the Dutch spelling checker for the Dutch version of Office 2003 post-Service Pack 2 hotfix package: December 9, 2005

Microsoft has released the Dutch Spell Checker for the Dutch version of Office 2003 post-Service Pack 2 hotfix package for Microsoft Office 2003.

• The issues that the hotfix package fixes.
• The prerequisites for installing the hotfix package.
• Whether you must restart your computer after you install the hotfix package.
• Whether the hotfix package is replaced by any other hotfix package.
• Whether you must make any registry changes.
• The files that the hotfix package contains.

This hotfix will update your spelling checker, thesaurus, grammar checker, and specialized dictionaries to the latest Dutch spellings. On October 15, 2005, the new edition of the Woordenlijst Nederlandse Taal (Wordlist of the Dutch Language), which describes the official spelling guidelines for the Dutch language, was released by the Dutch Language Union. Compared to the last edition (1995), the number of changes in this edition are limited. For example, there are no longer any exceptions to the linking "n" rules. Additionally, word-level changes were made to increase the spelling conformity among words. These include, among others, the use of capitalization for peoples and nations, the spelling of diminutives, and the spelling of English compounds.

The Nederlandse Taalunie (Dutch Language Union) hereby declares that the Dutch spelling checker that was developed by Polderland Language & Speech Technology follows the rules and principles of the official Dutch spelling as defined by the Nederlandse Taalunie. Upon evaluation, no deviations to the official spelling were found.

This hotfix package also fixes the following issue that was not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

• When you toggle the field codes in a Dutch language document in Microsoft Office Word 2003, the program may stop responding (hang) or may quit unexpectedly (crash). Additionally, you may receive the following error message:
  Microsoft Office Word has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
  When you view the data in the error report, the report contains an error signature that is similar to the following error signature:

  Application name	Application version	Module name	Module version	Offset
  Winword.exe	11.0.6359.0	Msgrnl32.dll	7.0.0.10	000023e5

  Additionally, other program versions, module versions, and offsets are possible.
  
  This issue may occur when the following conditions are true:
  • The document contains ADDIN fields.
  • You toggle the field codes in the document while it is being grammar checked in the background.
