-----Original Message-----
I am just putting the finishing touches on a clean install
of XP-Home, and noticed that there seems to be no spell
checker, and there is no "Spelling" tab in O.E.
Tools/Options. It was all there the last time I installed
from the same O.E.M. CD-ROM. Can anyone help me get my
Spell checker installed and working. TIA

Hello!
Take a look at this page and see if it is the answer to
your problem:

How To: Fix spell checking in Outlook Express 6
If you are running Windows XP and are also using Microsoft
Office 97, you may find that spell checking does not work
in Outlook Express 6.0. When you try to spell check a
message, you receive the message "an error occurred whilst
the spelling was being checked". The cause of this problem
is a missing file which Outlook Express requires.
Solution
Obtain a copy of the file csapi3t1.dll and place it in the
folder "Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Proof".
Copies of this file may be extracted from the file
mailnews.cab in an Internet Explorer 5.0 or 5.5
distribution set, the file win98_27.cab on a Windows 98 CD,
or the file Win_10.cab on a Windows Me CD.
A copy may also be downloaded by clicking on this link.
Note: the spell checker will only work if you have a recent
version of Microsoft Office. You didn't really expect
Microsoft to support spell checkers in competitors' Office
packages, did you?
