Has anyone implemented a form of a spell-checker? Ideally, not by calling a Visual Basic or VB.NET application running on each user's PC - I would prefer on the main server.
I wrote one many years ago that took advantage of a file named WORDS we had hanging around. I think it originally came from a green-screen word processor we had back in the Ultimate days (Jet?). It's just a file filled with IDs for every word in the dictionary. I select it with the built-in soundex function and give the user a list of potential spellings to choose from:
EXECUTE 'SSELECT WORDS SAID "':WORD:'" WITH NO F1', OUT > DUM, SELECT > LIST1 WORD.ARR = '' LOOP READNEXT WORD.ID FROM LIST1 ELSE EXIT WORD.ARR<-1> = WORD.ID REPEAT This works reasonably well. -John -- John Hester System & Network Administrator Momentum Group Inc.
