Outlool Express Spell Check

[Lou]

I cannot activate the spell check in Outlook Express. It
is not an option in tools or any other place I have
tried. It does work in Word.

You have to have MS word on your computer before it will work. There may be others but to my knowledge it is word you need.

OE does not come with a spelling checker. It uses the spelling checker from
any Office program that has one. Do you have such a program?

If not you could try one of these:

Free spellchecker.

or this, which I use on my laptop, which has Works.
