Use the AutoReplaceList property to spell-check a list of words, and if a match is found on the list then the misspelled word is replaced with the corresponding list entry as-you-type.

For example, you can monitor spelling on a Windows.Forms.RichTextBox control using this list. To see this feature in action, complete the following steps:

1. From the Toolbox, add the C1SpellChecker component and RichTextBox control to your form.

   Note that the C1SpellChecker component will appear below the form, not on it.

2. Select the RichTextBox, and set the following properties:
   • Dock property to Fill.
   • SpellChecking on C1SpellChecker1 property to True.
3. Enter the following in your source code to declare the directive for the C1.Win.C1SpellChecker:

   using C1.Win.C1SpellChecker;

4. Then double-click the RichTextBox and implement the following code in the body of the RichTextBox1_TextChanged event handler:

   ' build AutoReplace list C1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Clear() C1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Add("becuase", "because") C1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Add("cant", "can't") C1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Add("recieve", "receive") C1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Add("teh", "the") C1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Add("wont", "won't") ' activate as-you-type spell-checking on the RichTextBox C1SpellChecker1.SetActiveSpellChecking(RichTextBox1, True)

   To write code in C#

   C#

   Copy Code

   // build AutoReplace list c1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Clear(); c1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Add("becuase", "because"); c1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Add("cant", "can't"); c1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Add("recieve", "receive"); c1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Add("teh", "the"); c1SpellChecker1.AutoReplaceList.Add("wont", "won't"); // activate as-you-type spell-checking on the RichTextBox c1SpellChecker1.SetActiveSpellChecking(richTextBox1, true);

   This code builds the following list using the AutoReplaceList.Add method:

   Misspelled word	Correction word
   because	because
   cant	can't
   receive	receive
   the	the
   wont	won't

   Then it activates as-you-type spell-checking on the RichTextBox control using the SetActiveSpellChecking method.

Run the application and observe the following:
