This ActiveX Package contains a Visual Studio project that encapsulates TX Spell .NET for Windows Forms in a COM visible user control in order to expose Visual Basic 6.0 compatible members. TX Spell .NET ActiveX Package enables you to add high-performance spell checking capabilities to your VB6 applications. Technically, it is based on TX Spell .NET for Windows Forms that gives you access to the power of .NET technology in your Win32 based application. We learned that you are modifying the wrapper to fit your requirements. Feel free to make changes and to contribute to this project. We would like to encourage the community to discuss and suggest changes or to upload new versions. Download the sample from GitHub and test it on your own. --- ## About Bjoern Meyer As CEO, Bjoern is the visionary behind our strategic direction and business development, bridging the gap between our customers and engineering teams.
