Hello,
Because the Dutch speller in Cardbox is outdated and a little poor, I decided to make a macro which calls the MS Office spelling. It works perfect! In these situations it works:
- xp prof NL + mso 2003 UK + Dutch language pack
- xp prof NL + mso 2K prof Dutch
However: on some machines it does not work: the speller dialog does not appear. This happens in these configurations:
- xp prof UK + mso 2003 UK + Dutch language pack
- Win2K NL + mso 2003 prof NL
I mail this to Cardbox. On their machines (I do not know their configurations) the macro runs without error messages, but also the speller dialog does not appear.
I am interested in your experience with this macro. How is its behaviour in Vista and MSO 2007 by example?
I do not harm your machine, so you can use it without risk.
Kind Regards
Bert Stortenbeker
The macro:
if ActiveRecord.Userediting = true then
fld = ActiveField.Name
Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
objWord.Visible = False
Set objDoc = objWord.Documents.Add()
objDoc.content = fields(fld)
objDoc.CheckSpelling
fields(fld) = objDoc.content
objDoc.Close(wdDoNotSaveChanges)
objWord.Quit
set objDoc = nothing
set objWord = nothing
end if
