Outlook Express Spell Check - pardon my french
Many people are installing Office 2007 and then discovering that their spell check for Outlook Express is set for French. This is fine if you are writing emails in French, but most of us aren't.
Microsoft is aware of the problem and their solution is the upgrade to Windows Vista.
Our solution is do download and install this free spell check program.
Another less than elegant solution is to:
- Close all programs
- Start Microsoft Word 2007
- Click the Office Orb
- Click Word Options
- Click Proofing
- Click Custom Dictionaries
- Change the spell check language to any other language
- Click OK
- Click OK
- Close Microsoft Word
- Reopen MS Word
- Click the Office Orb
- Click Word Options
- Click Proofing
- Click Custom Dictionaries
- Change the spell check language back to English
- Click OK
- Click OK
- Close Microsoft Word

Spell check language on Outlook
I was not successful in changing to the English language for spell check. I followed your directions and closed Word and turned off the computer. It was downloading 14 files before it shut down the computer. Do you have any other suggestions of what I may be doing wrong to get this spell check corrected to the English language?
