Spell Check (Tip #2032) each string in a drawing is subjected to the spelling checker in Microsoft Word by exploiting the Active X programming element of Word. Visual LISP is cracks into object library of Word by exposing the various layers of objects to symbols until finally a temporary document is created to house the text from the drawing. The drawing text passes into Word and then the Spell Check is invoked. After the spell check is done, the text is extracted out of Word and placed back into the original objects. This tip includes some heavy programming, and is a great example for those who would like to control other Microsoft applications using Visual LISP. Thanks again, Andrzej!
