You could speed it up by instantiating Word only once - actually, there's John Koziol's spell checker class here in downloads, which does this part for you, but there's something better: Craig Boyd's VFP spellchecker which doesn't involve any cross-process communication or any ActiveX, COM etc, it's pure Fox. I've set it up and used it in about 15 minutes.
