Hi Rocky, The button on the form "on click" sets the value to true If it is True, then YOUR routine picks this up an exits. That is why the doevents is there. Hth Max Ps. Sorry if this is garbled, Rocky, but I am really drunk and signing off.... -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Rocky Smolin at Beach Access Software Sent: Saturday, December 22, 2007 2:59 PM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] Spell Check Max: Is there something in the click event of the cancel button then?

In the Routine I have code something like this. Dim bCancel as boolean bCancel = Forms!myform!myCancelButton Do while ...your code bCancel = Forms!myform!myCancelButton If bcancel = true then exit do Doevents Loop Max -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Rocky Smolin at Beach Access Software Sent: Saturday, December 22, 2007 7:13 AM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] Spell Check Kevin: That might do it. Not the 'perfect' solution for this client. But gets him closer fur sure. Originally there was just the one line: DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling. Which meant he could hit Cancel and the spell check would stop. But it checked all the fields which meant a lot clicking of 'Ignore All'. He only wants to check the one field - TimeEntryNarrative - so I set him up with that. But there's no way to stop the spell check once it starts and if the underlying recordset isn't well filtered, then it takes a long time to finish.

It works well, except that there doesn't seem to be a way to interrupt it once it's started. I tried a few different events thinking I could set a tag in a control, and, in the spell checking loop, look for a change in the tag. But nothing seems to trigger while it's in the loop. I've modified the routine to spell check only the current record. But it would be nice to be able to spell check forward from the current record to the end of the recordset but give the user a way to escape if the accidentally start the spell check and want to abort it. Spell checking the whole recordset at the moment takes about 10 minutes. Any ideas? Here's the code. It's pretty simple: DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acFirst Do While Me.NewRecord = False Me.TimeEntryNarrative.SetFocus Me.TimeEntryNarrative.SelStart = 0 If Not IsNull(Me.TimeEntryNarrative) Then Me.TimeEntryNarrative.SelLength = Len(Me.TimeEntryNarrative) DoCmd.SetWarnings False DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling DoCmd.SetWarnings True End If DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNext Loop MTIA, Rocky . -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com No virus found in this incoming message.
