Goal

This document will provide an example of how the Microsoft Office Spell Checker can be integrated into a Forms application. This example is only one of numerous possible ways in which to expose spell checking functionality in a Forms application (e.g. <Note 115895.1> Adding Spell Check functionality for Web Forms). This is only an example of what can be done. By presenting this example, Oracle is not necessarily indicating that it will support/certify this methodology. This sample code is provided as an educational example, use it at your own risk.

Requirements:

• A working Oracle Forms 10g or newer
• WebUtil properly configured in the Forms environment.
• Jacob version compatible with the Forms version used. Refer to the Form Builder Help or Release Notes.
• Certified Microsoft Windows user machine (refer to the Certification Matrix for details related to certified platform configurations and version).
• Microsoft Word (with spell checker option) installed on the user's machine.
