Is there anyway to look at all the Dialog in the game?

Sure. Any text editor should be able to open the USECODE file (in Ultima7/Static). It'll be a jumble, but you can search for any text this way.

There are also specialized viewers/interpretors (which I just recently asked about in a separate topic :) ) which lay things out in a more readable fashion and give a clearer sense of how the game operates.

Thanks for the response. I did a search but couldn't find anything. Could
you give me the link for the thread or the viewer/interpretor?

The thread:

http://exult.info/forum/viewtopic.php?p=314012#p314012

... though there's nothing more than my question right now. I'm still looking for a Usecode viewer. (I'm sure one of the devs will eventually respond here or in the thread above.) I thought there might be something of this description in the Exult Tools file ... and there may be in the files Wud and Wuc, but I've not learned how to make them work.

I don't want to support piracy here in any way, so if what I say is illegal - I apologize and please delete that post. In case it's fine - I'm pretty sure I've seen complete transcriptions of some characters from BG to be downloaded right away from the Web, maybe even from some UDIC-related site [if so - it should be legal but I'm not 100% sure]. Just go through all the Ultima related links and you'll find it.

I am pretty certain you're thinking of Underworld Dragon's site, The Collectible Ultima. This has a section of game transcripts here: http://www.notableultima.com/literal/

Exactly, this the site I meant :)
