Disable spell-checker in MS Access Run-time

Hi all,
>
I am a MS Access developer using VB 6 (yes, I know it is a bit
old). The problem I am having is, I have a software that allows my
customers to put in the information of their clients. A client of one
of my customer has a last name of "Cotten". Whenever they put in the
last name as "Cotten", the spell checker automatically converts it to
"Cotton". The thing is, I am sending them the run-time version of
Access. Many of my customers do not even have the full version of MS
Access; and because of that, they won't even be able to open up spell
checker in Access. My quesiton is, is there a way to use VB code to
disable spell checker?

Thanks in advance,
Monte

Actually, that's not the spell checker, but a feature called Name
Autocorrect which you can easily turn off under the Tools menu.
That's a good idea for other reasons as well, see:
