Step 1. Get your project ready (load or create it).

Step 2

Step 2. Add the RapidSpell Controls to your ToolBox

(if you have older versions listed, please remove them).



Note:
.NET 4 users should only add controls from, and reference Keyoti.RapidSpell.NET4.dll
.NET 2 & 3 users should only add controls from, and reference Keyoti.RapidSpell.NET2.dll
.NET 1.x users should use Keyoti.RapidSpell.dll instead

Step 3

Step 3. Drag the rapidSpellAsYouType Control onto your Form and add a TextBox.

Step 4

Step 4. Set the TextBoxBase property in rapidSpellAsYouType1 to your TextBox.

Step 5

Step 5. Run!

Note:

- By default a US English dictionary is used, to switch it to another dictionary (eg. UK) please click here.

- To offer an "Add" function to the user, set the UserDictionaryFile property to the file path where the dictionary should be stored (eg. "user-dictionary.txt").

Changing the main dictionary

Included are 5 dictionaries assemblies, AU, CA, UK and US English and a combined UK and US dictionary. These are located in the Dictionaries folder under the install folder.

To change the dictionary being used;

1. Add the Dict File of your choice to your project -
   a. Copy the Dict File from the install folder, typically C:\Program Files (x86)\Keyoti Inc\RapidSpell Desktop .NET\Dictionaries
   (files with .2 in them are compressed)
   b. Paste the Dict File to your project folder
   c. Open your Visual Studio project, right click within the Solution Explorer select 'Add Existing Item' and locate the Dict File (you may need to change the File Types to 'All Files')
   

   



2. In the properties pane for the Dict File, set it as an Embedded Resource
   

   



3. Set the DictFilePath in the spell check controls to the name of the Dict File
   (in the screen-shot that would be 'DICT-EN-UK-UKEnglish.2.dict')
   

   

Note: By default, when a Dict File is not specified, the built-in US English dictionary is used.
