If you would like to incorporate a Spellings Corrector in your VB app, it would take you quite a long time, this trick shows you in a simple example how to use MS Word´s Spelling Corrector within VB.

Create a new project with one form. Put a CommandButton and a TextBox on it.

Set the following properties of the textbox:
"Height = a couple of lines" Multiline=true ScrollBars=Vertical

Code

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Text1 = SpellCheck(Text1)
End Sub

Public Function SpellCheck(ByVal IncorrectText$) As String
Dim Word As Object, retText$ 

On Error Resume Next 

' Create the Object and open Word 
Set Word = CreateObject("Word.Basic") 

' Change the active window to Word, and insert 
' the text from Text1 into Word. 

Word.AppShow 
Word.FileNew 
Word.Insert IncorrectText 

' Runs the Speller Corrector 
Word.ToolsSpelling 
Word.EditSelectAll 

' Trim the trailing character from the returned text. 

retText = Word.Selection$()
SpellCheck = Left$(retText, Len(retText) - 1) 

' Close the Document and return to Visual Basic. 

Word.FileClose 2 
Show 

'Set the word object to nothing to liberate the
' occupied memory 

Set Word = Nothing 
End Function

I used WordBasic because that way you can also use this tip with older versions of Word aswell.
