Outlook 2007 changed spelling of Outlook Express
Thanks, I get it now.
Its seems a little dumb of Microsoft to allow this to happen. What happens if I have never installed an Office application - I assume that Express can still spell check ?

No, OE requires an Office installation, or a 3rd-party solution like the
ones Bruce listed. Without somethiing else, there's no spell-check. -- Gary S.

No.
Outlook Express doesn't have its own spell checker. You'd have to get a free one. There are quite a few available on the Internet.

"Patrick Schmid [MVP]" wrote in message
... Office 2007 ships with a newer version of the Office spell checking support than Outlook Express can handle. That's the explanation... When you upgrade to 2007, Office 2007 dutifully upgrades the spell checkers to the new version too (seems to affect the English ones only though). See my RTM issues page for a workaround. I installed Office 2007 on Vista last night. After installing it I checked the Office pages for updates and wan offered an update for Windows Mail (the Vista successor to OE). Spelling in Windows Mail is working fine. Maybe they also offer an update for OE. -- Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM http://www.fjsmjs.com Answer in newsgroup. Don't send mail.

That would be very useful to know for sure. Microsoft should have told us up front that installing Outlook 2007 or Office 2007 would disembowel the spell checker function in Outlook Express -- if that is indeed true. DSH "Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM" wrote in message news

Thanks Bruce this was very helpful.
However, it changes the language to US English. Do you know any similar downloads that would change it to "proper" English?

I am not aware of any free spell checkers for the U. K., but this one is
only $14.95. (I don't know what that equates to in "proper" monies).
