Hi Bob,
Thanks for your quick response. Is that possible to detect the spelling check
feature and display “Feature already installed” when it already installed by
other product?
Thanks

That's based on components, not features. As long as you follow the
components rules, installing a feature with the same components as
another product is essentially a no-op except for increment the
component reference count.

Because features are local to the product being installed; the feature
hasn't been installed for this product so the install state is absent.
