OLE Automation Start a new project in Visual Basic. Form1 is created as the default form. Add a text box (Text1) and command button (Command1)
VBcoders
Sub Form_Load()
'center form
Me.Move (Screen.Width - Me.Width)/2, (Screen.Height - Me.Height)/2
'set text to be checked in text box
txtOle.Text = "Ole automation is graet. The posibilities ar endless!"
End Sub
Place the following code in the cmdSpell_Click event procedure of Form1:
Sub cmdSpell_Click ()
Dim WordObj As Object
Dim sTmp As String
Set WordObj = CreateObject("Word.Basic")
'start new file
WordObj.FileNew
'clear selection
WordObj.EditClear
If txtOle.SelText <> "" Then
'insert only selected text in VB Text Box
WordObj.Insert txtOle.SelText
Else
'insert all text from VB text box
WordObj.Insert txtOle.Text
End If
'perform error handling
On Error GoTo OleError
'position to begining of document
WordObj.StartOfDocument
'position to end of document, selecting all text in between
WordObj.EndOfDocument (1)
'invoke Word spell checker
WordObj.ToolsSpelling
'select corrected text and copy into buffer
WordObj.EditSelectAll
WordObj.SetDocumentVar "MyVar", WordObj.Selection
sTmp = WordObj.GetDocumentVar("MyVar")
'replace contents of text box with corrected text
txtOle.Text = Left(sTmp, Len(sTmp) - 1)
MsgBox "The Spell Check is complete"
Exit Sub
OleError:
'resume at next line
Resume Next
End Sub
Hit F5 to run the program.
Click the SpellCheck button, and go through the following sequence of corrections:
Ole (Ignore)
graet(Change to great)
posibilities(Change to possibilities)
ar(Change to are)
After the last correction, you will get a Message box telling you that the Spell Check is complete. The results inserted back into the text box should say this:
"Ole automation is great. The possibilities are endless!"
