re: Open Office:

See Tools | Spellcheck | AutoSpellcheck (to enable/disable on the current document)

or

Tools | Options | Language Settings | Writing Aids (to set globally)

As for format, they support XML but use other ones as well, including their own unique formats.

re: UV

Not to advocate MS Office, but it is possible to link into UV via UniObjects and VBA (thanks, Bjorn, I've put your Excel code to good use). Theoretically you could use UV as a data store for your documents.

How about Open Office?  It was annoyingly correcting my typing just last
night! (I looked around but couldn't find where to turn that off.)
IIRC, (and I didn't look) OpenOffice documents are pure XML, so they
should be easy to store in UniVerse-- just text.

It should be possible to write a "plugin" or something that would store
the document directly into UniVerse.  It's on my list to write one for
Jedit, but I don't think it has the autocorrect function you want. (It
might, there are a bunch of plugins, or someone could write one.)
