    Arrow Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    Gangsta Yoda

    Description:
    I wrote this to demonstrate how to take full advantage of MS Word's built in Spelling and Grammer checker. There
    are a few other code examples that show how to do spell checking with Word but they are all using the same technique that
    seems to have a few issues like showing the spell dialog behind your app, messing up the line breaks so you need to
    apply a code fix to restore them, flashing window, etc.

    What makes my spell checker different is that I use the actual spell/grammer checking dialog window and not invoking it by
    coding the usual - "Document.CheckSpelling" which seems to cause the mentioned issues.

    Since I use the dialog window I preset the type of spelling I wish to perform. Now you can make it dynamic by having a
    spell options form in your app to allow the user to preset it to either Ignore words in UPPERCASE, urls, mixed words and
    numbers, check grammer, and whether to show spelling suggestions, etc.

    Requirements:
    Microsoft Word
    Versions 8.0 - 11.0 (97 - 2003)

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    Thanks for the code RD!

    I seem to be having a problem with Word not closing when the spell check is done. the document is closing but word stays open with a blank MDI type window.

    Also, is there a way to make word not show in the taskbar when this is all happening? Its not a big deal, but if there is a simple solution, that would be nice.

    Thanks.

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    Can you post your code so I can see how its being implemented? Not the module code but your form code.

    I can probably come up with a way to hide word in the taskbar. Give me some time to test an idea.

    I really can't narrow it down to a certain part of the code so I am posting it all in an attachment.

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    EM, I updated my example with the fix for a possible extra line break that may or may not be added to the end of the replacement text.

    I will look at your code later today. I am leaving for an appointment.

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    Ok, I made a few updates to the code in my original post. It will now hide the blank Word app between spell check runs if no other
    instance of Word is running. If there are then .Close'ing the document will remove it from the taskbar automatically.

    There is no easy way to remove Word from the taskbar when it is checking spelling though.

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    Hmmm. It corrected ttest, but it left S instead of A. Then it capitalized the first word in the sentence.

    Before

    this is a test, this is only s ttest
    After

    This is a test, this is only s test
    I didn't think Word did that. I'll have t try it.

    EDIT: Word does the same thing. Odd.

    Great Job. I like Grammar Check!

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    LOL. That was an actual typo, but after proof-reading it to make sure the misspelled word ttest was in there, I decided to leave it. Go Figure!

    Have to spread it around some. Got you for a 'Net thread the other day for the Line Numbers. I wondered how you would find line 697, but wasn't about to count them!

    Thanks.

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    I was doing a spell check on my verbiage on the original post and I came up with some spelling errors!

    Just in case anyone is wondering about what is the ShowReadabilityStatistics then this is what it looks like after the checking is complete.


    Ps, Thanks Dave, I'm glad its starting to get some good feedback.

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    I think most of it can be writtne in VB Script but I dont really know it well enough (probably a n00b at it ) to be able
    to give you a reliable answer. Isnt VB Script more like this code would be as if it was written using Late Binding?

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    Is this an addition to that VBF Add-In one of our members made? If not how are you executing it?

    Does the Set dlg = objWord.Dialogs work?

    The const value for the spellingandgrammER dialog is = 828

    Yes it all works and yes, it is a part of the "Forum Tool" that I mention in my signature. The code is in an htm file that via Registry entries is appended to the IE right-click context menu.

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    Martin, instead of checking for a string match between the doc and the string variable you may be able to use words error count
    instead and that may help bring the function to other browsers then IE.

    VB Code:
    1. oDoc.SpellingErrors.Count ;)

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    I am having one problem. I'm finding that if I happen to have another instance of Word open for another reason it will close it without asking and I will lose my original document. is there any code fix that you can think of that will leave my original word document alone?

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    I have been thinking about this for a while and I had tested the code quite well too so I'm not sure yet. How are you implementing it? All in one form or in a module like I have? What version of Word are you running?

    Re: [RESOLVED] Spell Checker

    Hi, in an Access Module I've copied and pasted the code above. Then in an access form I try the following.

    VB Code:
    1. Private Sub Command0_Click()
    2. Me.Text1 = SpellMe(Me.Text1)
    3.  
    4. End Sub
    5.  
    6. Private Sub Command3_Click()
    7.     InitializeMe
    8. End Sub
    9.  
    10.  
    11.  
    12. Private Sub Form_QueryUnload(Cancel As Integer, UnloadMode As Integer)
    13.     If KillMe = True Then
    14.         moApp.Quit False
    15.     End If
    16.     Set moApp = Nothing
    17. End Sub

    The module gets called okay but errors out on the
    App.OleRequestPendingTimeout = 999999
    if I tab this out it then errors out on
    Clipboard.Clear

    Where does App and clipboard come from eg what refereces do I need, or is this never going to work in Access VBA?
    Anyway thanks in advance for any help

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    I moved your post to my CodeBank thread for the VB 6 version of my spellchecker.

    In Access there is no QueryUnload event so you need to use the Unload event

    VB Code:
    1. Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
    2.  
    3. End Sub

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    If your using Access only then you dont need any of the code other then using Access' built in spell checking.
    VB Code:
    1. Private Sub SpellMe()
    2.     Application.DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
    3. End Sub

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    Sorry, getting confused in my old age, anyway the problem with that is it automatically checks the whole form which I don't want, as the form in question is huge.
    Currently I spell check like so.

    VB Code:
    1. Public Function Spellcheck(TextStr As String) As String
    2.  
    3.      Set WordApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
    4.      WordApp.Documents.Add
    5.      Dim wordrange As Word.Range
    6.      Set wordrange = WordApp.ActiveDocument.Range(0, 0)
    7.      wordrange.Text = TextStr
    8.      WordApp.Visible = True
    9.      WordApp.Activate
    10.      wordrange.CheckSpelling , , True
    11.      wordrange.CheckGrammar
    12.      Spellcheck = wordrange.Text
    13.      wordrange.Text = ""
    14.      WordApp.Documents.Close (False)
    15.      WordApp.Quit
    16.      Set WordApp = Nothing
    17. End Function

    But this has odd glitches which I was hoping your code would sort out.

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    So your not using VB 6 at all and you dont want to use the built in spell checker? If you just select the textbox or text and the call the SpellMe procedure I just posted it will only check the selection or textbox only.

    Sorry feel am being relly stupid here. I don't mean to be a pain.
    Yes this is fully in access so not vb6 at all.
    Anyway have tried using
    Application.DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
    It checks the spelling but then shoots off and spell checks other text boxes.
    Which as this database form is used by some very uncomputer literate people I think this will confuse them no end.

    Not sure what you mean tried higlighting the text and then doing it, but after it checked the highlighted text it moved on to another control.

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    It works in my test form with several textboxes. I highlight 1 and then spellcheck it and it doesnt check the rest of the textboxes.
    VB Code:
    1. Option Compare Database
    2.  
    3. Private Sub SpellMe()
    4.     Me.Text0.SelStart = 0
    5.     Me.Text0.SelLength = Len(Me.Text0.Text)
    6.     Application.DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
    7. End Sub
    8.  
    9. Private Sub Form_Click()
    10.     SpellMe
    11. End Sub

    Thanks that works, assume Access doesn't have a grammer checker though.

    Anytime

    If you wanted the Grammer checker then you would need to have Word installed and use my original code - post #1.

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    Hi 'Oliver1',
    I was just having a read through this thread and was wondering would you mind possibly giving me a sample of where/how you set the acCmdSpelling checks in VBA? ,when you were initially checking all the text boxes on the form?

    Would be appreciated if possible,

    Thanks

    Re: Advanced VB/Office Guru™ SpellChecker™

    I have just implemented this code in my app yesterday and have the following (small) problems. Firstly, when the user clicks to Spellcheck, the dialog box doesn't always come to the top and it makes the app seem as if it is stuck. Secondly, if they have any other Office app running, this app comes to the forefront immediately the button is pressed. My users are running Office 2003 if this is any help.
    Thanks

    Thats not in my code example but it loks like your missing a class or control in your project.

    Thanks for u reply. Oh i was thinking it was u code but now i tried your code and i get the following error:

    Compile error:

    User-defined type not defined

    and pointing at :

    Public moApp As Word.Application


    could u help me fix this error. I added one button and a textbox to the project. What else do i need such as refrences or any other controles?

    Furthermore, is it possible to underline the spelling mistakes as we type and by clicking on mistake it gives suggestions? Also is it possible to make this program so it only does what i just described on external editboxes ? I be happy if u help me here.Thanks
