# DictionaryGeneration GUI Documentation

After converting the dictionary file into a CSV file, you have to generate the dictionary files
into the format of DictionaryForMIDs. For that, you have to use DictionaryGeneration. Note that
before generating the files, you have to create a properties file (DictionaryForMIDs.properties).
To create such file you can use just about any text editor, but it is far more convenient to use the
application 'PropertiesEditor' included in DictionaryForMIDs-Creator. PropertiesEditor makes it
very easy and pleasant to create a properties file. Almost everything is there written for you,
you just have to choose among comboboxes, lists, checkboxes etc. and PropertiesEditor will write
the final DictionaryForMIDs.properties file for you.
Hit the Create button to launch the PropertiesEditor window.
