I'm wondering, if it's possible to use dictionary and spellchecking from Microsoft Office applications in my app programmed in Builder like I've seen in some other programs?
 
The simple answer is "yes." The hard answer is how. I believe it requires an API but I don't remember which one. Check MSDN if you can't get any help here. The way Visual C++ will do it will also be the way BCB does it unless someone can come up with a third-party or VCL that also does it.

There's the servers tab, and I think I saw a component related to word in there. I know there's an example somewhere of how a BCB program integrates with word. There may be a way to utilize the spell checker through that. Cyprus
