I have a text-box on a form on which I made a feature to spell-check it by right-clicking on it. If I type text into this text box and I right-click without going out, foxpro
will not immediately recognize the characters I typed. I first have to go out of the box, and then when I come back in by clicking in it, the right-click will work. Also, even when I have already have text in it from before and I change it, the change will not be spell-checked; the prior version will. Do you have any suggestions ?? [sig][/sig]
 
Just a hunch, but try looking in the Text property of the control rather than the Value. [sig]<p>Robert Bradley<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= - Visual FoxPro Development</a><br> [/sig]
 
Dear Mr. Bradley,
I was using the field bound to the textbox to spell-check. Your answer got me thinking, and I changed my spell-checker to this.value and now it works great !!! thanks for the tip !!!
