Spell Checker Question

[Guest]

I just purchased a new Dell. I did not purchase any Microsoft word
processing software with it because I wanted to save money and I already have
Office 97 which suits me just fine. My problem is Outlook Express will not
spell check anything and I realize Express needs a Microsoft Word program to
get its dictionary from. I thought by installing Office 97, Express on this
new Dell would recognize the Word program and I would be able to use the
Spell Checker. Office 97 installed just fine and the spell checker in Word,
works.

Thanks for your time in advance,
Marshall
