I would like to know if there is a way to spell check my database forms etc. Not the data in the tables, but what I have on my screen. I'd hate to tell the boss this is done, but find I spelled a word wrong somewhere.

Thanks
 
under the Tools menu there is a Spelling... option.
you can also click F7.
i think this only works in form view.
i think there is also a button on the toolbar with a check mark that will perform the same function.

to automate this, you could use the SendKeys command.

hope this helps you.
 
Unfortunately that only check the data behind the form. It does not check the form layout for spelling errors.

 
ohhh, ok. sorry about that.
 
It is kind of tedious but you could copy the words you want spell checked into word and use the spell checker there. I dont know, see if there is a way to import the table into word and check the whole thing maybe.

Just suggestions, not sure if the second one will work and the first one is tedious as all heck.
