>>I haven't been paying much attention to activex controls in VFP lately. Would appreciate feedback on what activex controls everyone uses for gui (ribbon, grid, outlook style controls, etc)? Anything really nice for VFP9 SP2? Anything even close to the Infragistics .Net Controls for winforms and wpf available in an activex that works well with VFP9 SP2?

You can choose to use one of many RTE jQuery plugins and some have spell check support. Check this one out http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/examples/skins.php. Type some garbage into it.
