Dear Community,

I am trying to code a script that would allow office software to recognize my custom proofing language, when I right-click a wrong word a context menu needs to appear with the correct word (proofing tool) and choose from it same as English proofing tools I will post examples at the bottom if someone knows the code source for the English or other language proofing tool I would appreciate it if it can be shared with me, so basically at the end it needs to be a software that can be installed and start working in word, excel, outlook Etc.

    @ATriX

    Tag “office-word-itpro” focuses on general issues about Word clients.
    Since your issue is more related to code of Office which is out of our scope of support. I would remove the tag “office-word-itpro”.
    If needed, you may also post your issue on the Office for Developers forum.

    Thanks for your understanding.

    Regards,
    Erin

    Hello,
    Word, Excel, Office have their own spell checking.
    If you want to use spell checking in your own developed app, you could for example use this:
    Spell-Checking-Edit-Control-Using-HunSpell
    Adding-Spell-Check-and-Synonym-Info-to-a-Text-Edit
    Here is an overview of source:
