| Using the application

To find a word in the dictionary, simply start entering it. A few letters will usually suffice to find what you're looking for.

Click on any word on the screen, in either language, and the application immediately jumps to its dictionary entry (or its closest match).

The application offers several powerful search and select options. Individual dictionary entries can be tagged or untagged at will.

Example. A selection of all the 6-letter words starting with the letter p and ending with the letter t.

The application offers other useful options like crossword-solving, anagram searching, and list of the most important regular and irregular verb tables.

All in all, the authoritative information provided by HarperCollins and the power and speed of Palmtops hypertext engine combine to make this one of the most truly useful software packages available for your Windows® CE device.
