I have a Word 2000 document that has some Text Form Fields on it. They are
grey boxes and I type information into them. When I do a spell check it
won't spell check what is typed into them though. Is there any way to spell
check the contents of those fields? And actually, I'd really only like to
spell check the contents of those fields and not the rest of the document
anyway?

I found an article that talked about how to unprotect, spell check, and
reprotect a document. However, this still did not spell check the contents
of those fields - it did spell check the rest of the document though but the
rest of the document doesn't change anyway.
