I'm going to need to add spell checking to my app. Any suggestions or recommendations?
Thanks!

We use Keytoi which integrates nicely with Infragistics controls amonst others.

Thanks! I had looked at rapidspell and thought it looked very nice.
For any of you who aren't familiar with this one (I didn't know they made rapidspell) and go to search on google, it's keyoti, Trent had a typo there.

Just a quick note, though... while Infragistics uses RapidSpell for their spell checking, it is very tightly integrated and the binary dictionary files (*.dict) are slightly different; the Infragistics dictionaries are encoded by bit-shifting 2 bytes more than the default RapidSpell dictionaries, so they are not directly interchangable. So, don't expect to buy a RapidSpell dictionary and immediatly use it with infragistics unless you first extract the words and re-encode it using the modified Infragistics encoding algorithm.

Thanks for the info. I'm assuming this means that if I was using infragistics and some other spell check enabablable control, I'd have to use two rapidspell controls, because I'd need two different dictionaries? Sound kinda like a pain....

You could....or what Ben was referring to and what we did is figure out how Infragistics was encoding the dictionary, pull RapidSpells words out , add our words, and put it back into the format Infragistics is expecting.
