Default GetSpellingSuggestions dictionary name

The 3rd parameter of

Selection.Range.GetSpellingSuggestions()

is supposed to be the main dictionary that is to be used.

Can anybody tell me what would be the parameter, if I want to choose the German dictionary? (Office 2010)



Thanks

If the word you're checking is formatted as German, you don't need to set the language. Form the VBA help file:
Quote:
If you don't specify a main dictionary, Microsoft Word uses the main dictionary that corresponds to the language formatting of the first word in the range.
Otherwise, you'll need something along the lines of:
Code:
Dim Dict As Dictionary
Set Dict = Languages(wdGerman).ActiveSpellingDictionary
Selection.Range.GetSpellingSuggestions , , Dict.Path & "\" & Dict.Name
