Right click in Macro

[MShroff]

When making a macro i want to right click on the word - how can I do that? I am trying to record a macro where I right click on a misspelled word (eg bigboy) and then select the first option where the word is corrected to big boy. Word will not let me right click when recording. How can I get around this?

Thank you

Hi M Schroff,

You could simulate the right-click with:
SendKeys ("+{F10}")

My apologies, I dont get it. I am not very WORD savvy!

Hi M Schroff,

I don't really understand why you want a sub with the right-click approach, when you could use a sub like:

Sub Demo()
Selection.Range.CheckSpelling
End Sub

The Sendkeys code is what you'd add to a sub to simulate the right-click after something has been selected (either by the user before running the sub or by the sub itself). For example:

Sub Demo()
Dim StrWrd As Range
For Each StrWrd In ActiveDocument.Paragraphs(1).Range.Words
  With StrWrd
    If .SpellingErrors.Count > 0 Then
      .Select
      SendKeys "+{F10}", True
      Exit Sub
    End If
  End With
Next
End Sub
