Windows Vista Mail Spell Check Not Working Tip

[Guest]

Changing your default language to something other than English,
then changing it back. Vista comes with it not fully set to
English.

Does anyone get any real help from MS?

Seldom here. Most of the help here comes from volunteers who
don't work for Microsoft.

Start Windows Mail
Click the Tools menu and choose Options...
Click the Spelling tab
From the Language drop-down, select English (default choice)
Click OK

Note: In step 2, make sure that you select the Tools menu from the main window, not the New Mail message window.

Click on Tools, then Options, then Spelling. Click on the triangle
to the right of English, then another language, then Apply, then the
triangle again, then English, then Apply, then OK

Windows Mail comes with the language partly, but not fully, set
to English.

I tried using vista articles.com and it didn't fix it for me. I went back
into incoming e-mail went to TOOLS - OPTIONS - SPELLING. Make sure that
Always check spelling before sending is checked off. Hit apply and your good
to go.

What a crazy way to fix the problem. You would think the powers that be at MS
would have made sure it was working properly before they released the program.

 

[Gary VanderMolen]

There hasn't been a program released yet that is 100% perfect.
As far as bugs go, at least this one has a rather easy workaround.

Did not fix the problem but got a request to purchase a program I was not
familiar with.
