Hello,

I have successfully used the wdWildcard and wdAnagrams
constant with the SuggestionMode argument for the
GetSpellingSuggestions method for Word in Office 98.

But these constants cannot be used with Word 2000
and Word 2003 (see:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;224722
).

Is there any way I can use the dll and other files from
Office 98 to beef-up my Word 2003 so that I get support
for these constants? If so, how?

Thanks,

--Suresh

The KB article mentions only Word 2000.
The constants are defined in the type library for Word 2003.
Have you tried the code in Word 2003?

I have tried on word 2003 (11.5604.5606) with no success.

Could you post a code snippet that demonstrates the problem?

' Following code taken from microsoft example documentation
' Following code gives correct answer "look" on Word 98, but error 9132 on
Word 2003:

Sub DisplaySuggestions()
Dim sugList As SpellingSuggestions
Dim sug As SpellingSuggestion
Dim strSugList As String
Set sugList = GetSpellingSuggestions(Word:="loko",
SuggestionMode:=wdAnagram)
'wdSpellword)
If sugList.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "No suggestions."
Else
For Each sug In sugList
strSugList = strSugList & vbTab & sug.Name & vbLf
Next sug
MsgBox "The suggestions for this word are: " _
& vbLf & strSugList
End If
End Sub

wdSpellWord works in Word 2003.
wdAnagram does not, at least not for the built-in spelling engine.

I know wdSpellWord works. My question has always been
about wdWildcard and wdAnagrams:

Neither wdWilcard nor wdAnagrams works in Word 2003 with the default
spelling engine.

You might ask in microsoft.public.word.spelling.grammar.
