I had a big WTF moment this morning. Apparently there has been a spell checker add-in for Microsoft around for a while, because they just released version 2.0. The Visual Studio Web Developer Team Blog documents the usage of the new spell checker.
You can download a VS 2005 Version or if you are already using VS 2008, you can download that version as well.
When I first tried installing, the install wizard asked if I wanted to install for “Just Me” or “Everyone”. I picked “Everyone”, and it did not work. After reading a few blog posts I tried the “Just Me” option (after uninstalling) and it works fine.
I can already see that I don’t like the fact that I cannot add items to a custom dictionary. But all in all, it looks like a very useful tool.
