Add to dictionary is getting disabled in TextControl

I am working on a Windows Forms Application. I am using a TextControl in my Application where we can insert plaintext and richtext. We need to add Open Office Dictionary and spell checker in order check for the spellings. If we have few set of words that are not in the Open Office Dictionary we can create our own User Dictionary and add those words to that dictionary. The words which are shown a red line indicating a spelling mistake can be added into User Dictionary by right clicking on the word and clicking on add to dictionary.

Add to dictionary is getting disabled abruptly when I am trying to type some new words in the TextControl and add them to the User Dictionary.

Where did you get "add to dictionary" option ?
What is a TextControl ?
Are you using any plugins for dictionary?

Add to Dictionary is a feature of the browser, assuming that is what you are talking about, and nothing to do with .Net or the textbox control.

I suggest you post this issue in the technical support forums for whatever application you are referring to.

Hi Ryan,
I think I am not clear with my question. Actually I am working on Windows Forms Application. I don't think it is a browser issue.

It may be a windows thing then or maybe something you have installed. What is the exact verbage? "Add to Dictionary"? I don't see that in mine. It comes from something you have installed that adds spell check everywhere.

Yes Ryan, Actually I added Spell Checker to the TextControl and then I am getting Add to Dictionary option when I right click on the new word which is not in the Open Office Dictionary

I suggest checking out Open Office forums to see if they can help.
