1) Download the US English dictionary file (engus.csv) and place it in the 'imports' subfolder of the DbNetSpell installation folder. This is a CSV file supplied within a zip archive, so make sure you extract it. The dictionary file may be downloaded from this URL
http://www.dbnetspell.com/dbnetspell/download.aspx
2) Identify the Sql Server database which will serve as the location for the new dictionary table. You can use an existing database or create a new one. You should then take the OLEDB connection string which accesses the database and copy this into the value property of the 'default' connection alias within the web.config file in the DbNetSpell installation folder. For example;
<add key="default" value="Provider=SQLOLEDB;Server=server1;Database=northwind;UID=sa;PWD=;"/>
(note - you can check the connection string first by pasting it into the conection string test utility which is accessible from the DbNetSpell menu page.)
3) You can then run the Dictionary Management utility from the DbNetSpell menu page. Select the 'engus.csv' option from the list of Dictionary Source Files (it should be the only one) and select 'default' from the connection alias drop-down (again, it should be the only option) and then click on the button to 'Create Dictionary'. Progress should be reported after every 1000 words.
This completes the conversion process. All your existing DbNetSpell pages will now extract information from the SQl Server tables.
