[RESOLVED] Spell Check in an application

Hi There,
Does anybody have any advice on putting a spellcheck on alot of information in an application in general. Would it generally be better to go with an Access application or a VB Application. The spellcheck would have to check a large amount of information i.e. multiple textboxes on a form or even the database tables themselves. Is this possible to do a full spellcheck on a database table?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks :)

Will the Client Computers have Office installed on them? If so, check out RobDog's and MartinLiss' Spell Checker posts in the VB6 CodeBank.

Thank you for your help Mark, I will have a look into these, seems like most the information on adding spell checks is geared towards VB as opposed to VBA in general so im thinking going the VB route may be better. Also, alot of information seems to be only checking single textboxes on forms and not multiple textboxes (well I did see one mention of this) or checking tables in an access database.

Thanks for the information :)

Hi Mark,
Just wondering, did you ever hear of spell checking a table/tables in a database from a VB application?

Thanks :)

My suggestion would be to do your spell check before you save the data back to the database.
