Sounds like a perfect candiate for a Modeless Dialog (TM) :-)
One day when I'm feeling brave I'll make the spell check modeless too. We
need to move all that nice xp code in the dialog into FV_View.
Then we can leave the selected areas greyed to show which area in which
doc is being spell-checked. This is what focus == FOCUS_MODELESS does.
Cheers!
