Hi to you all,
I agree with what Gene has said. I use it in the same way he
describes. Besides, when I type a word whose definition I wish, I
press enter and tab twice to the read only definition field. When
I studied English, I used Wordweb as much as possible. I use it
still. There are as many definitions contained in it as you wish.
It's good to use the screen review, because when you tab to the
definition read only field to read definitions, it sometimes
happens that you miss some examples and types of words such as:
verbs, nouns, pronouns, derived forms, etc, if you choose not to
use the screen review.
If you wish to get the most out of your Wordweb definitions, you
may have to obtain an internet connection. When you type a word
and you find no matches, then you go to the view menu in the
Wordweb interface, and then you need to find a submenu called In
web browser. In that case, wordweb consults some other definition
sources on the internet.
Enjoy your Wordweb, anyway. It offers much.
Cheers,
Dejan

I don’t have the current version, I don’t use it much but
I use screen review to look at the results. Also, I have no
problem typing a word and then activating the search button
in my version. When I open the program, I am already in the
edit field, which I believe may acgtually be something else
like a combo box. I type the word, then tab, I believe
once, to the search button and press the space bar. I then
use screen review to look at the results. its more likely
you will see everything and its easier than tabbing to the
right place and looking in other ways.
You can try the program and see if it is still laid out
and works similarly to my version.
It has an insulting and intrusive license agreement. The
developer is obsessed with airline travel as a way of
determining who doesn’t have enough money to justify using
the demo as a free version and that is how you convert the
demo to the free version. When the demo time runs out, or
when you want, you certify that you haven’t flown more than
something like two times in the last year. And thus, the
planet will be saved.

Has anyone found a
