>>>>We do provide spellchecking in our applications, but since we're using the native VFP editbox, it needs to be invoked explicitely. No realtime validation. To be honest never thought about that one though.... It probably needs to be replaced by some activeX control to provide this. This indeed the weak area of VFP. Its native GUI. Fortunately there are loads of activeX controls that provide addition functionality.

Of course. The spellchecker. I read the message above and saw "...weak area of VFP. Its native GUI..." and thought you were pointing to a Craig Boyd blog about replacing it with something else. I know about his blog about using .NET to create an ActiveX control to be used in VFP, but, that is not "native VFP" is it.
