It is not the same dictionary.

In word it says that it is english UK

In publisher the spell checker says that it is against English US.

You misunderstood the posting. The CUSTOM dictionary is the same in Word
and Publisher, and is stored in a file normally named custom.dic.
In word it says that it is english UK

In publisher the spell checker says that it is against English US.

Tools > Language > Set Language.

What version of Publisher are you using?
Telling me they share the same Custom dic does not solve the problem.

I know. But you said that Mary's statement was not true, when it was.

Could someone tell me why the search feature cannot find OMA.DIC in the
current users Proof-folder, but others instead?

I'm using Admin rights.
