Re: [libreoffice-users] How to Enable Thesaurus

Try this one;
Download this British English [You did want British English correct?] 
dictionary that has a Thesaurus built into it.  Then install it [with 
the Extension Manager].  Then see if you have a Thesaurus.  IF you do, 
then you did not have a working one installed that LO can use.

The American version is what I use with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.

Actually this file comes from my work trying to make a set of good 
English dictionaries for LO.

If you decide it works for you, go to the Extension Center and decide 
which British English [American, or Canadian version as well] you would 
like to use.
