I explored how I finally got the Webster's Dictionary 1913 (ver 2.1) working as a true look-up type dictionary starting at this post.

Without doing these steps, the ebooks cannot use the Search feature.

BTW, Nate the great used this same technique to get his 2008 World Fact Book working as a true lookup ebook!

I appreciate the info. I'll try to understand it, but I am not a programmer.
But thanks for the link. I'm always trying to understand the new languages.
I'm just happy with the provided dictionaries.
