If you install Office 2007,
spell checking in Outlook Express may not work as expected, unless
you want spell check in French! This is because Office 2007 uses new
proofing tools and OE can't use them because it's designed to use
the older tools. It's easy to fix: install just
the proofing tools from your previous version of Office (using the
custom install option). You can get them from any older Office suite
or application - including FrontPage, Publisher or standalone
versions of Word, Excel, or Outlook. To install just the proofing tools
from Office 2003, run Office setup and choose the custom option. Uncheck
all programs in the list and add a check to choose the options at the
bottom of the programs list. No the nest screen, set each top level item
to be Not Available (red X icon). Expand the Office Shared Features
branch and locate Proofing tools in the list. Expand proofing tools and
choose English, setting it to Run from my computer. Finish the
installation. Once installed, restart OE - go to
Tools, Options and verify Spelling is configured to use the correct
English dictionary. If you need assistance with this
problem, please contact me by email or call the number listed below. |
