Thank you for the advice Gord. One question though, I have text boxes in my
form which your macro appears to ignore. Is there something I can change to
have spell check look at everything on the ***?

Thanks again!

Using a macro is the only work around that I know of.

Sub Spell_Check()
Active***.Unprotect Password:="justme"
Cells.CheckSpelling SpellLang:=1033
Active***.Protect Password:="justme", DrawingObjects:=True, _
Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True
End Sub

Unprotects the ***, does the spellcheck then reprotects the ***.

"justme" can be changed to your password.

I've read that the spell check function is not available in a protected

Thanks in advance for you assistance.
