Spelling Coach from Deneba offers an interactive and batch spell checker,
an online version of Merriam-Webster's 9th, including complete definitions of
all dictionary entries, an online thesaurus, and a somewhat primitive
grammar checker.  The dictionary includes hyphenation and capitalization rules
for all entries.

I've used the product for over a year, and have been very pleased with it.
Iit turns ms-word into a very powerful writing tool.
