spellcheck windows vista email

I don't seem to have the choice of "options" in the tools menu so where do I
go from here because I can't live without my spell checker.
thanks

Hi Dawn,

You need to click on the Tools menu from the Main Windows Mail screen.
See this tutorial for details with screenshots.
