VBA Gerus,

If my code selects a word in a document (e.g., "while"), how do I
determine if the word is part of a grammar error without stepping
through each error in the document to locate it?

The code "For Each MisWord In ActiveDocument.GrammaticalErrors" can be
used to step through and identity each error, but what I need is to be
on a word and determine if it is part of a grammar error.

Thanks.

I guess you should use it with caution - but no more caution than the whole
collection or anything else to do with grammar.

Selection.Range.GrammaticalErrors.Count

should be >0 if the selection is part of a grammatical error.

Enjoy,
Tony
