MS Office spell checker on Access 2016 runtime installation

I just want to check something.  If I supply an Access 2016 runtime database to a client who does not have Office installed.  Will the spell checker work?  If not, can anyone recommend a good third party product.

Thank you Scott - much appreciated.  I remember having this issue years ago, so I'm pretty sure you're right.  In the end I went for the "Wintree Spell checker", which I still have a licence for (it's quite expensive).

All the best and thanks again.

However, in a runtime environment, you will not have right-click (shortcut menus) to call the spell checker unless you create them yourself.
