Spellcheck on outside application - newbie

[Evan McPeters]

Hi,

I am very new to Python so please forgive my ignorance.

I need to develop a program that will spell check a word processing window
that is open in another application. I do not have access to the the API or
any other code for this application, so I was hoping that the spell checker
could simply do it's job on whatever the user's active window is.

Does this make sense. Does anyone have an idea about how to start this.

Thanks in advance.
