" "is not a valid floating point number" when running Spellex Registration

Problem

During Spellex registration, you get the error ” “is not a valid floating point number”.

Solution

1. Save and close any word document you may be working on.
2. Close the error message
3. Navigate to C:\Windows (assuming Windows is installed on your C drive)
4. Rename the “win” file to “win.old”.
5. Rename the “win32” file to “win32.old”
6. Run the Spellex registration again.

When registering Spellex the serial number (with the CD) and registration code (generated by the spellex registration application) is NOT the activation code.

The activation code is received after the registration process is complete on the web registration web form (http://spellex.com/registration/). You will require both the serial number from the CD and the registration code from the software to generate an activation code.
