The code goes into a code module, not a sheet's code or the ThisWorkbook
module.
If that didn't make a lot of sense, you need to get into Visual Basic
from the Developer tab on the ribbon menu. (If you don't have a Devloper
tab, click on the Office orb - that round button at the top left of the
Excel window, select Excel Options and then on the 'Popular window,
check the third box down Show developer tab in the ribbon).
On the left hand side of the VB editor window, there should be Project
- VBA Project pane and it should have listed your workbook as a VBA
project. Right click on the VBA project that has your workbook name in
parentheses and from the pop up menu select Insert and then Module. This
should open up a code window in the editor - and that's where you paste
the code; it will be a macro.
To run the macro, go to the View tab on the ribbon, click on the Macro
button and from the window that pops up, select the SpellCheckTextboxes
item and click on Run.
That should get you there!
To run it, select the worksheet you want to spell-check
*How to add and run a Macro*1. *Copy* the macro above pressing

*To Run the Macro...*
To run the macro from Excel, open the workbook, and press *ALT+F8* to
display the *Run Macro Dialog*. Double Click the macro's name to *Run*
it.
