Paul,

Besides the situations you refer to, this problem is more particular for 
people who've installed office 2007.  For spell checking they must use 
either an independent spell checker (such as you've adverted to), or 
'upgrade' their Email program to Windows Mail, Microsoft's step up from 
Outlook Express.  From accounts I've heard, though, Windows Mail is still 
quite buggy.

Hi Joan Ann,

Outlook express does not have a spell checker of its own. Outlook Express
uses the spelling checker provided with the following Microsoft Office
programs: Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint.

It must, therefore be trying to use the French Spellchecker from one of the
listed installed programs. You could try to find out which one has a French
checker and alter that to English. I would say to look in Microsoft Word and
make sure it is set correctly there to English.

A FREE stand-alone spell checker for OE is available from here:

Paul.


Hope that helps.

Hi, I wonder if someone can tell me how to change the spell check
language used for outlook express.  It is set to French and I don't
seem to have a choice to choose English.

Thanks
Joan Ann.
