Default spell check in protected forms

Sorry to be so slow. I've removed the password. However, now the spell
check does not work at all in the user form. I feel like we're getting
there, . Now what?

Robert is correct. I'm asking you to do some things to troubleshoot the
problem.

Make a test copy of the document. Unprotect it -- I'm thinking this will
require a password. Now protect it again, but without using a password. Now
try the macro.

If it works, or at least gets past the last problem area, then that's what's
happening. The macro won't work on password protected forms. You'll either
need to remove the password protection, or add some code and provide your
users with the password to enter.

AFAIK there's no way to unprotect a password protected form either manually
or using VBA without the password.
