I am using XPHome and outlook express to write emails, but I cannot spell
check the letter as there is no facility to do this.
Can anyone explain, very simply, how I might overcome this problem

Either buy and install Word, (or any of the other Office modules that have a
spellcheck function) or if you can't afford that, then google for a freeware
spellchecker

To check the spelling in messages

Outlook Express uses the spelling checker provided with the following
Microsoft Office programs: Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft
PowerPoint. If you do not have one of these programs installed, the Spelling
command is not available.

Outlook Express has never had spell-checking capabilities of its
own. Instead, it relies upon the presence of other Microsoft
applications, such as the Office Suite, Word, or the Works _Suite_
(which includes Word, not the regular Works). There are also some
3rd-party shareware/freeware solutions available at any of the many
shareware sites on the Internet Spell Magic seems well thought-of,
though I haven't tried it myself:
