    Problem solved.  I downloaded and installed Spell Checker for OE 2.1, and 
it works fine.  Thanks.

      Have you installed Microsoft Office 2007 on your system? If you have, 
this is why you only see the French option when using the spell check in 
Outlook Express.



      The spell checker that installs with Office 2007 is not compatible with 
OE. Your options are to use a third party spell checker for OE or downgrade to 
Office 2003.

      Hi fellow listers.  I just tried the Spelling Check in Outlook Express 
for the first time, and it flagged almost every word in my message as 
misspelled, even though they were, in fact, all spelled correctly.  So I went 
to the Spelling page of the Options dialog of the Tools menu, and discovered 
the cause of the problem: the Language Combo Box lists French as the one and 
only default.  Since there is no list of other languages to choose from in this 
combo box, how can I change the default language to English so that the 
Spelling Check works properly?  Thanks, or should I say "merci".
