Notes

The dictionary is slowly expanding. It currently has 5800 words. If you manage to expand
the dictionary, PLEASE send me it, so that everyone can use it

This DLL is compiled to VB 6. If you want to use it in VB 5, compile the
DLL from the source code. DON'T FORGET to change its filename to vbwSpellCheck_5.dll,
and to change the DLL Base Address. You can randomly generate a DLL Base Address
using the following code:
Randomize
Debug.Print = "DLL Base Address: &H" & LCase(Hex(CLng((32768 - 256 + 1) * Rnd + 256) * 65536))

This DLL is backward compatible with Version 1 of this DLL

effeciency and improving code.
