Previous post was a typo. Amazon dictionary only works English to German. I want German to English.

In any event, I finally got it working German to English. It turns out these translation dictionaries come in 2 parts. One for each direction. Amazon sold me a single one-way dictionary. I had to purchase the 2 part dictionary from Mobipocket.com.

For some reason, to get it to work on a kindle, you still have to modify the codes, to get it to work as the default dictionary. As desribed in the post I refered to earlier. So I modified this and it now works. German to English.
