You can't. I went to the MS web site and this is a known "feature" with Office 
2007 and IE 7. I suspect they are pushing us toward Live mail. I just decided 
to use Outlook 2007 instead.

  Subject: Changing default language in OE Spelling Check



  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".
