I couldn't get it working with your code but I got it working with this code,


Code:
Private Sub CommandButton3_Click()
    ActiveDocument.Unprotect
    ActiveDocument.CheckSpelling
    ActiveDocument.CheckGrammar
        ActiveDocument.Protect _
            Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, _
            NoReset:=True, _
            Password:=""
    
End Sub

The only problem is that if you press cancel on the spell checker I get an error message saying "The ToolsProtectDocument is currently disabled".
