Steve,

Word perfect works fine on your system.  Just get the stand alone spell 
checker for outlook express if you can and install and use it if wp 12 works 
for you, don't waste your money on the behemoth.

I didn't realize that when I ordered the new machine that word perfec and
microsoft didn't work together. I asked the guy if word pad and note pad
were on there with word perfect and he said yes. He didn't tell me that
microsoft products didn't work with correll. He told me that I could have
had microsoft word for $29 more and I said no  thinking it would be okay to
have word perfect. I also realize now that most email programs work with
microsoft word and I will have to get it. I made a mistake.
