VBA Code for Grammar Check Not Working in Word 2016

PSSMargaret · #1 06-09-2016, 07:15 PM

The code below works perfectly in Word 2010 for spell checking and grammar checking but it's not working in Word 2016. Does anyone have an idea why?

HTML Code:

Sub RunSpellCheck()
   ActiveDocument.Unprotect
   Selection.WholeStory
   Selection.LanguageID = wdEnglishUS
   ActiveDocument.CheckSpelling
   ActiveDocument.CheckGrammar
   ActiveDocument.Protect Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset:=True
End Sub

I edited the code (below) and as I said, it runs perfect on my computer with Word 2010 but on another computer with Word 2016, the grammar portion is not running. Help!

Code:

Sub RunSpellCheck()
    ActiveDocument.Unprotect
    Selection.WholeStory
    Selection.LanguageID = wdEnglishUS
    If Options.CheckGrammarWithSpelling = True Then
        ActiveDocument.CheckGrammar
    Else
        ActiveDocument.CheckSpelling
    End If
 
   ActiveDocument.Protect Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset:=True
End Sub

I should also include that it's checking legacy form fields when the form unlocks.
