Hi Alan,
You are absolutely correct. I am able to use the 'text' property to spell check the field. This does, however, bring up another problem. If a spelling error has been made, when I save the corrected 'text' property, all formatting is lost and everything reverts to Ariel Bold.
Any idea how to keep the previous formatting?
Thanks,
TFISHER
