Windows XP, IE6, OE6

My spell checker in OE6 is using a French dictionary. How do I get it to be
the english dictionary?

thanks,

You no longer have spell checking capabilities in some languages in Outlook
Express 6.0 after you install the 2007 Microsoft Office system:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932974

Outlook Express cannot use the MS Word spell check in Office 2007.
Downloading a free spell check is the simplest way around this.

Vampirefo:

TinySpell:
http://www.tinyspell.m6.net/ (Checks the spelling as you type).

Australian English Spell Check
(Also suitable for other English speaking countries.)

If you have a previous version of Office, see this:

Thank you Bruce. That is the exact problem.

I have Office 2007 installed on that machine. I will check your suggestion
to install the proofing from my office 2003 disk.

And thank you for the great Outlook Tips site. That will come in very handy
now that I am using Outlook for mail on that machine.

You're welcome. I have never had Office installed and always used the
Vampirefo spell check. It works just fine if the proofing tools suggestion
gives you any headaches.
