    I'm trying to set up a spell check macro for a specific range in column I.

    I've come up with this, but Excel gives me an error. Can someone help me fix it? PLEASE HELP!!!

    Whoops! I was testing something out (which clearly didn't work).

    So … the code is now as follows. But it still doesn't work!

    Look up CheckSpelling in Help. It can't appear standalone like that.

    EDIT: I don't understand that error -- it works for me exactly as posted. Can someone else try?

    EDIT2: For readability, I would use the language enumeration instead of the inscrutable literal:

    The error seems to be something wrong with the language selection. If I take out the SpellLang specification it works (and defaults to USA English). Is there any reason why it doesn't work with AUS English?

    P.S. I tried both SpellLang types … the number and the wording.
