The IFEDictionary interface allows clients to access a Microsoft IME user dictionary.

This API enables your applications to access and use the data contained in the Microsoft IME dictionaries (including personal names & geographical names dictionaries) or user dictionary. You can develop and sell such applications, provided that

  1. You do not create an application that accesses a dictionary that is not a Microsoft IME dictionary through this API.

  2. You do not dump, copy, and distribute the dictionaries' data contained in the Microsoft IME. You must use the API only for the purpose of developing applications for users who already have the Microsoft IME.
