You're going to pretend to us that you haven't a clue on how to perform an
online search, like using Google? Or why any software vendor, including
Microsoft, would support a product that was discontinued 8 years ago and

Outlook Express never came with a spelling checker. It borrowed the
spelling files from Word. However, with Word 2007, Outlook Express cannot
use the English, German, or Spanish spelling files; read

3rd party spell checker for Outlook Express. Some are free.
