Configuring a Spell Check Button on an Applet

Siebel CRM can call Siebel Spell Check from an applet menu item. To configure this applet menu item, you create a Check Spelling Field user property for the applet that contains the following objects:

• Check Spelling button

• Field where Siebel CRM does the spell check

Note: The feature described in this topic is available in Siebel CRM 18.10 Update and later releases.

To configure a spell check button

1. In Web Tools, display the following object types:

   • Control object and all child objects of the Control object

   • Applet User Prop, which is a child of the Applet object type
