This code sample works fine with WP 7 , but don't seem to get the job done with 8 or 9. Basically I get the error "OLE IDispatch exception code 65442 from WPWIN9: AppRestore...blah".. here's the code:

      objWP = CreateObject("WordPerfect.PerfectScript")
      rc=objWP.AppRestore
      rc=objWP.type(checkme)
      rc=objWP.Display(1)
      rc=objWP.WPSpeller
      wc=dialog(0,0,8,40,"Click OK when spell check complete","OK")
      rc=objWP.Display(0)
      rc=objWP.SelectAll
      rc=objWP.EditCut
      stash=_CLIPTEXT
      rc=objWP.CloseNoSave
      rc=objWP.ExitWordPerfect
      rc=objWP.Quit
      objWP=""

Reducing it down to just the type and the WPSpeller commands doesn't work because WP has not been made visible.
TIA!
