Right, the spellcheck module can be called by other programs only when it's
an ocx file, which can then register itself for spell-checking function. If
you try to install Visio, it will ask you whether or not to install its own
spell-check module, which supplements the Microsoft Office spellcheck
module... in any case, UltraEdit's spell-check is probably done internally.
