Having had to re-install from a formatted hard drive I now have a spell
checking problem with OE6. If sending (spell check set to auto check before send) I get the error message; 'The spell check was halted on this document. Do you want to send it anyway?'. If using the Tools menu Spelling command (or pressing F7) I get the error message; 'An error occured whilst the spelling was being checked'. Any ideas? Jack |

Jack OE does not have a spell checker, it uses MS Word or Works, did you reinstall either of those yet? -- Regards Steve. MS-MVP. OE. [DTS] |

During the re-install I also installed MS Office 97 Professional. This was
the setup I had installed for the last 4 years until the crash. Worked fine up to the crash. JAck "mac" wrote: "Jack" wrote in message ...

For Office/Word97 on WinXP, this seems to be the common cause:
