How to use "GetSpellingSuggestions"?

[GiHem]

Hello the forum,
When I type a text in Word 2010, I often make typing mistakes. Especially if the text is in German (uppercase at the beginning of the noun).


I would like to automate the corrections, especially those concerning the uppercase absence.
There is a VBA instruction "GetSpellingSuggestions".
Could a member of the forum explain it to me:

• how to force the use of the German dictionary for the choice of suggestions
• how to extract the first suggestion

Thank you in advance for your answers

J'ai trouvé une solution, non satisfaisante mais solution quand même. Elle est basée sur une instruction trouvée sur le site de Microsoft

    If ActiveDocument.Words(1).GetSpellingSuggestions.Count <> 0 Then
    MsgBox ActiveDocument.Words(1).GetSpellingSuggestions.Item(1).Name
    End If

Thank you for your response.
This thread is very interesting and I agree with your conclusions.
At first, I just wanted to correct the lack of initial capitalization for nouns in German. As it works quite well (thanks to the help of a MS forum in French) I also wanted to correct the spelling but you talked me out of it.
Thanks again
