My question is very simple. Is anyone manage to highlight then grammar and spell check in a RichTextBox from an VB6 project (in a Windows Form of course).

If the answer is yes, I'm very interesting of the method you get to do this.

Thank you
Nicolas

Yes, I did something similar years ago using Microsoft Word's spell checking.

I found a VB6 example here[^] - but note that I did not download the source code and check it

There is a VB.NET example here[^] (that does not require a download to view the code). It should still work with VB6 (if you really must use VB6)

The highlighting etc was obviously within the VB6 code. I found an example of that here[^]
