Misspelled word not highlighted in text box being checked

Product: Sentry Spelling Checker Engine Windows SDK

Version: Any

Problem: When you check the contents of a text box (edit control) using SSCE_CheckCtrlDlg, misspelled words are not highlighted.

Solution: Make sure the text box has the Hide Selection property set to False. If you create the control yourself, make sure the ES_NOHIDESEL edit style is set. See "How to check an edit control or rich-edit control" in the "Using the Sentry Windows API" chapter of the Sentry Programmer's Guide for more information.
