    What's New with Version 3.4

    Version 3.4

    * Major update to WPTools integration pieces to permit hookup of multiple controls to a single Addict instance and usage of LiveSpell without installing additional components.
    * Allow the word at the cursor in a live-spelling control to be spell-highlighted if the control does not have focus
    * Changed WordAcceptable to return False if an excluded word is encountered, rather than forcing all apps to check separately for excluded words.
    * Added the ability for Control parsers to specify their TComponent (used in determining the proper form for dialog parenting)
    * Fixed a dialog parenting / control issue with WPTools where the spelling check dialog would come up under a WPTools component located in a modeless window.
    * Fixed possible range check problem when using the LiveSpelling RichEdit components
    * Added exception handler for problems loading a MSWord custom dictionary whose file is locked or otherwise can't be opened.
    * Added a fix for JvxRichEdit to better work with LiveSpelling
    * Fixed an occasional problem with the AutoSpell component attempting to reference the FocusControl when there was no FocusControl.
    * Added a fix to propogate LiveMenuOptions properly to RichEdit subclasses when using AutoLiveSpell components Any further questions can be sent direct to me
