You can also use Open to open a text file of words (and entries separated by tabs).
Kind of surprised that this is not easier to do. The Spellcheck WordList is obvious source for IndexWordList.
Thanks again.

portersprings - do yourself a favour and get notepad++, as
e..z said it can read just about anything and lay it out in a comprehensible format.
Re "You can paste text into the Text To Include field – e.g. from a file...". Methinks I should read the manual.
You'll need to replace all the line feeds with tabs. In notepad++ select
View->Show Symbol->Show all characters - for this sort of operation only, and then replace (select Extended radio button) all line feeds
\n with tabs
\t and you'll be off to the races.
Once you've used Notepad++ you'll wonder how you lived without it.

e..z if MS were to include a half decent editor in their OS then the anti-trust regulators in DC and Brussels would have them in court in a flash. Not only would they rob shareholders (pension fund investors) of tens of millions of dollars and euros, they would direct MS include links to every tom, dick and harry's text editor in the OS install. BTW knocking down tall poppies is as easy as picking low hanging fruit, when repeated ad nauseam it indicates the presence of a crashing bore.
