Due to various accumulating problems, I went to the trouble of
reformatting and then doing a clean install of Win XP Pro SP2 along with
some 55 updates. I reinstalled my copy of Word and the spellcheck in OE
works fine. The thing is I had a rather extensive dictionary file on the
old install with many specialized words. I'd like to get these back.

I have several backups on an external drive to chose from but Ghost
doesn't seem to have a search function in their backup browser. What I
need is the file name and it's specific location... then I can restore
it. I know the people here know the answer.
