Re: Access 2002 Runtime Spellcheck w/Office 2007

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

The only reason it formerly worked is because you must have had the
dictionary installed with whatever version of Office you already had on the
machine, since you cannot legally distribute the Proofing tools with the
Access runtime.

That means that in order to get it working again, you'll have to look for
some third-party spell-checking product. Sorry, I don't know of any, but
that doesn't mean they're not out there.

I posted this previously and get no response. Not sure if my question is
worded poorly or if this is the wrong forum, but I'll ask again:

I have the Access 2002 runtime installed on my client machines running an
access data project. Some of my users just installed Office 2007 (without
Access) and now spell check for my text areas on my forms no longer works.
Gives a message that the dictionary can't be found (or something similar,
I
haven't seen it yet, just talked with my champion and he explained the
problem.) It makes sense that the dictionary might be different in 2007,
however, is there an elegant solution?

Thanks in advance.
