I am a Macintosh developer. Our product is a standalone spell checker,
which I want to integrate into Word 98. I think I'll have to write a
module in VBA, which then links Word98 and our spellchecker.

I once bought a book for Word 6 which described in depth how to do this
and which had floppies both for PC and Mac. The most recent book I can
find now is for PCs (Microsoft Press: VBA for Office 97) only and the
CD-ROM doesn´t include Mac code samples.

Our partner company, which uses the spell checking engine for windows,
successfully integrated into Word 97, they just had to write their code
as WLLs (Word Linked Libraries) and the UI was made in VBA.

I spent more than an hour on the Microsoft website to search for "VBA"
and ("Office 98" or "Macintosh"), but found nothing. Did you know that
there are at least four different search pages on Microsofts site all
leading to different results?

Any hints where to get more information?
