Use MS Word Thesaurus from VB application

[systech44]

Hi,

I want to know how to use MS Word in-build Thesaurus from VB application. My situations are like below,

1. Open a .doc document from VB application.
2. If I double-click on a word then rest of the similar word will be highlighted and curved through [].
eg. I select on the word 'easy', then it highlighted all 'easy' in the document and curved as ['easy']
3. If I select from the option that "20% word will be highlighted" then randomly 20% word of the document will be highlighted.
4. If I press Replace button then it will replaced the highlighted words with SYNONYMS from the build-in Thesaurus of MS Word.

Please help me. Thank you in advance.

Try

Private objWord As Word.Application
Private objDoc  As Document
Private strText As String

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    On Error GoTo ErrorTrap
    'the word in question must be hightlighted, otherwise
    'we dont know what we are looking for
    MsgBox "No word selected.  Hightlight desired word please."
    If Text1.SelText = vbNullString Then Exit Sub
    ' Start and hide Word.  If word is actually showing, then
    'they will know how we do our magic
    Set objWord = CreateObject("word.application")
    objWord.Visible = False
    objWord.WindowState = wdWindowStateMinimize
    ' Create a new Word document.
    Set objDoc = objWord.Documents.Add
    ' Set the Word document's range to the selected text and
    'call the thesaurus.
    objDoc.Range = Text1.SelText
    objDoc.Range.CheckSynonyms
    ' Replace the text with the selected synonym.
    strText = objDoc.Range
    strText = Left$(strText, Len(strText) - 1)
    Text1.SelText = strText
    Exit Sub
ErrorTrap:
    MsgBox Err & " " & Error
End Sub

Private Sub Form_QueryUnload(Cancel As Integer, UnloadMode As Integer)
On Error Resume Next
objDoc.Close savechanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges
objWord.Quit savechanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges
Set objWord = Nothing
Set objDoc = Nothing
End Sub
