Configuring a Spell Check Button on an Applet

Configuring a Spell Check Button on an Applet

---

A user 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 on which Siebel CRM performs the spell check

To configure a spell check button

1. In Siebel 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
     For more information, see Displaying Object Types That You Use to Configure Siebel CRM.
2. Create a check spelling button in the applet that contains the field on which Siebel CRM must perform the spell check:
   1. In Siebel Tools, in the Object Explorer, click Applet.
   2. In the Applets list, locate the applet you must modify.
   3. In the Object Explorer, expand the Applet tree, and then click Control.
   4. In the Controls list, add a new record using values from the following table.
      
      

      Property	Value
      Name	ButtonCheckSpelling
      Caption	Check Spelling
      Field	Do one of the following: If this is a nonrequired field, then enter the field name. If this is a required field, then leave this property empty.
      HTML Type	MiniButton
      HTML Only	Contains a check mark.
      Method Invoked	ShowPopup If Siebel Tools does not display the Method Invoked in the list, then type it in manually.

3. Define user properties for the spell check button:
   1. In the Object Explorer, expand the Controls tree, and then click Control User Prop.

      Popup Dimensions	560 X 350 This is the recommended initial size.

4. Add the spell check button to the web template:
   1. In the Object Explorer, click Applet.
   2. In the Applets list, right-click the applet you modified in Step 2, and then choose the Edit Web Layout menu item.
   3. In the Controls/Columns window, make sure the Mode list is set to Edit.
   4. In the Controls window, choose the Check Spelling control, and then drag it and drop it on a placeholder in the Applet Web Template editor.
   5. Right-click in the Applet Web Template editor, and then choose the Preview menu item.
      Siebel Tools displays an approximation of how Siebel CRM displays the Spell Check button in the Siebel client.

   1. In the Object Explorer, click Business Object.
   2. In the Business Objects list, locate the business object to which you must add the Spell Check business component.

8. If you must configure spell check for multiple fields in an applet, then repeat Step 2 through Step 4 for each additional field.
   You must create a button for each field.
9. Compile and test your changes.
