How to write a custom spell checker for Microsoft Word?

Question

I want to write a spell checker for Word 2003 and 2007 preferably using Microsoft's own CSAPI which will enable my spell checker to work in the same way the built-in spell checker works. I did a bit of research and found out that "developers who are interested in implementing a CSAPI spell check engine and lexicon, or only an add-in lexicon, can contact Microsoft Developer Support."

Does anyone have any experience with this? Why this bureaucracy? Why doesn't Microsoft just publish the API specification? Do I have to pay for it? I want my spell checker to be free to use.

HELLO! LOOK TO THE WWW.CODEPROJECT.COM YOU CAN FIND DESCRIPTIONS FOR THE CSAPI FILES AND SOME OTHER. BUT THERE ARE TOO LITTLE INFORMATION
