Thank you ShellShock. I followed your very clear instructions and it went as you said it would.

Now I have a question:

I changed to the Websters International because I looked up the word "villein" in the Kobo dictionary and it said it was lower than a "thane" and higher than a "cotter." (All of these, as you probably know, are classes of society in medieval England, and they appear in a book I am reading.) But there was no way to look up either "thane" or "cotter," so I decided to get a more comprehensive dictionary.

However the Webster's Int. does not even give the definition found in the Kobo dictionary, but instead says "See Villain." That's fair enough, and the word "villain" is underlined, as though it were a link. But when I touch it, it doesn't go anywhere.

Am I doing something wrong? Or is following a dictionary link just not doable?

I have a Kobo Glo, software 2.5.2.

Thanks,
Tom
