Default spellcheck in a textbox?

Is there a way that anytime a user presses the spacebar while inside of a textbox that spellcheck on what they have entered thus far is fan on the contents of that textbox? I want the red squigglies to show if they have misspelled a word before they decide to submit the information. Thanks.

Spell check works automatically in text boxes. What I suspect you are describing are text form fields, where there is no spell check. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/...ProtectDoc.htm
