Hi Leif,

I have the German, and the Brazilian Portuguese dictionaries, and the U.S.
and
British English Super dictionaries installed in the Dictionaries folder,
together
with the related Hyphenation, User dictionaries and Thesaurus', as well as
the Nisus Definition Dictionary.

In  the Preferences I have selected the US Super Dictionary, the US
Hyphenation, Thesaurus and User dictionary, as well as the Nisus
Definition dictionary as the default. Switch Dictionary by Language is
checked. The Nisus New File has Brazilian Portuguese as Language
Style.

I typed this mail in Nisus in order to see if I can reproduce your problem.
Well, changing from a normal dictionary to a Super Dictionary did not
cause any problem; I tried it more then 5 times. Switching back from
a Super Dictionary to a normal dictionary SOMETIMES causes an Error 1
type crash.

Well, I never noticed this before, because I never switched between
dictionaries
in this way. Al what I did so far, was to change the dictionary once in a
single
document. So, we really have a problem here.

I am sorry Leif that I could not help you. Regards
