With the new machine I hit f7 and nothing comes up for a spell checker. I went to internet explorer and on the old machine it has a spot for programs. Here they have Microsoft word as an editor On the new machine I have word perfect 12 and in that I have microsoft compatibility. I don't find a way to add this into internet explorer which I am sure would give me the ability to have spell check in outlook express. what should I do.. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bruce Toews" <coke_drinker@xxxxxxxx> To: "jfw" <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, November 05, 2004 9:53 PM Subject: Re: Jaws and start menu > Oh, you don't need to turn it off.
