Hey all,

I would like to do the following using VBA

(a) In a document, change all spellings in the US style to their
counterparts in the UK style. Eg. Color to colour
(b) The opposite of (a) - Colour to Color

Now, this has to happen without any questions to the user and the words that
have been changed are to be in a different colour. The conventional way is
to have a huge collection of words and process them with Find & Replace
macros, but I was wondering if I could somehow use the Word Dictionary to do
this.

I would appreciate any wisdom on this.

Yeeesss....

1) Ignore all spelling errors
2) Change languages defined and implemented
3) Auto-correct all spelling errors.
