Default Spell checking
Has Word VBA and means of spell checking? I want to conform some names (that have been OCRd) and really need both first+last names included in the check.

Thanks for any info.

VBA can run Word's spell-checker, but it has no spell-check function of its own.

Word's spell-check tools can process a whole document in one go but, quite obviously, each word needs to be individually checked.
