Hi,

I have a C#.NET program in which I'll need to check if a word is in a
U.S. English dictionary. Is there such utility in C#.NET?

There are plenty of data structures, including List<string> and
Dictionary<string, List<string>> that may help check valid words. You
would need to fill a data structure with a list from some search such as
http://www.sil.org/linguistics/wordlists/english/.

I don't know of any "ready to use" tools in .net. There likely are if
you link into MS Office however.
