WPF TextBox Custom Dictionary Support
dictionary, spell-checking, textbox, wpf
Solution
Just FYI. Custom dictionaries will be in WPF 4.0. Refer to tweet http://twitter.com/kevingj/status/2954272004 from Kevin Gjerstad the Group Program Manager for WPF at Microsoft.

Problem
Has anyone found a workaround yet for getting custom dictionary support working for the built in spellchecking on WPF TextBoxes/RichTextBoxes? We've been probing the spelling stuff with reflector hoping to find where the dictionary entries are coming from, but it's looking very much like it's going to be a COM object.... I know it's not currently supported and that Microsoft were looking into supporting it in a future release, but that was quite a while ago and I can't seem to find any recent news about it. Clutching at staws, I've posted a suggestion up on Connect: https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=470233
