      Visual Basic

Private _spell As C1.Win.C1Spell.C1Spell

      C#

private C1.Win.C1Spell.C1Spell _spell;

7.   To create a list of suggestions in the list box, add the following code to the DialogForm:

      Visual Basic

Public Sub SetSpell(spell As C1.Win.C1Spell.C1Spell)

   Me._spell = spell

  

   Dim i As Integer

   For i = 0 To _spell.Suggestions.Count - 1

       Me.lbSuggestions.Items.Add(_spell.Suggestions(i))

   Next i

End Sub

      C#

public void SetSpell(C1.Win.C1Spell.C1Spell spell)

{

    Self._spell = spell;

 

    for (int i = 0; i < _spell.Suggestions.Count; i++)

        this.lbSuggestions.Items.Add(_spell.Suggestions[i]);

}

8.   To implement the Change button, enter the following code for the btnChange_Click event handler:

      Visual Basic

Private Sub btnChange_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnChange.Click

    If lbSuggestions.SelectedIndex >= 0 Then

        _spell.CheckWord = lbSuggestions.Items(lbSuggestions.SelectedIndex)

 

        Close()

    End If

End Sub

      C#

private void btnChange_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

    if (lbSuggestions.SelectedIndex >= 0)

    {

        _spell.CheckWord  = (string)lbSuggestions.Items[lbSuggestions.SelectedIndex];

 

        Close();

    }

}

9.   To implement the Ignore button, enter the following code for the btnIgnore_Click event handler:

      Visual Basic

Private Sub btnIgnore_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnIgnore.Click

    _spell.IgnoreWord = True

    Close()

End Sub

      C#

private void btnIgnore_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

    _spell.IgnoreWord = true;

    Close();

}

10.  To implement the Cancel button, enter the following code for the btnCancel_Click event handler:

      Visual Basic

Private Sub btnCancel_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCancel.Click

    _spell.CancelSpelling = True

    Close()

End Sub

      C#

private void btnCancel_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

    _spell.CancelSpelling = true;

    Close();

}

11.  To implement the Change All button, enter the following code for the btnChangeAll_Click event handler:

      Visual Basic

Private Sub btnChangeAll_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnChangeAll.Click

    If lbSuggestions.SelectedIndex >= 0 Then

        _spell.ChangeAllWords = CStr(lbSuggestions.Items(lbSuggestions.SelectedIndex))

        Close()

    End If

End Sub

      C#

private void btnChangeAll_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

    if (lbSuggestions.SelectedIndex >= 0)

    {

        _spell.ChangeAllWords = (string)lbSuggestions.Items[lbSuggestions.SelectedIndex];

        Close();

    }

}

12.  To implement the Ignore All button, enter the following code for the btnIgnoreAll_Click event handler:

      Visual Basic

Private Sub btnIngnoreAll_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnIgnoreAll.Click

    _spell.AddIgnoreAll(_spell.CheckWord)

    _spell.IgnoreWord = True

    Close()

End Sub

      C#
