spellcheck windows vista email

Guest

When I try to spell check outgoing email, a message pops up saying the "This
language is no longer available for spell checking. Please select another in
the spelling options dialog box." Since I'm writing in English and its the
only language I speak fluently, I seem to be out of options. I'm also a
terrible speller, so really need the spell check.

Thanks.

Is the spell checker enabled? See this link from my website:

If spell checker is enabled, then try changing the language. You should
already have it set to English, but change it to, say French and then back
to English again.

Thank you so much John.
Very easy instructions to follow - I was getting really frustrated with my
new computer & tempted to go back to another provider!

Windows Vista doesn't provide it.
Now, ow is to read someone elses's complain is supposed to help me?
Who will help all of us? Would Windows ever give us some help?

Just follow this:
To set the language for the spelling checker
Before you can check the spelling in a message, you must select the language
you want to use.

Click to open Windows Mail.

Click the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Spelling tab.

Under Language, in the drop-down list, click the language you want to use
(English, French, German, or Spanish).

Click Apply, and then click OK.

Note
Although English is displayed as the default language, you must select it if
you want to use it.

To check spelling in a message
Click to open Windows Mail.

After writing a message, click the Tools menu in the New Message window, and
then click Spelling.

If a spelling error is found, you'll be given the opportunity to correct the
error, or add the word to the spelling checker's dictionary.

When the spelling check is complete, click OK.

Ciao
