Hi, I have another problem that I have had since I got my pc. I dont have a
spell check in OE. When I open a message box, the spell check option just isnt there. Can you help? Thank you. John. |

You would need to have MS Office installed to get a spellchecker.
However you can install a free one that woprks very well. I have used it for several years. Download it from here. http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=2952 Larry jmatt21 wrote: : Hi, I have another problem that I have had since I got my pc.

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. which I use on my laptop, which has Works. http://www.majorgeeks.com/article.php?sid=2952&cat=10A And here's a freeware that checks your spelling as you type: TinySpell http://www.tinyspell.m6.net/ See also: Bill James' SpellCheck Fix http://www.billsway.com/notes_public...SpellCheck.txt -- Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM Do not send mail. |

Hi, thank you both for your help.
I tied to install this spell checker http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=2952 it got part way through the process of installation, and came up with this warning 'some or more of the files are write protected, would you like to overwrite them now'. What does that mean, Is it somehow there is a spell checker in there somewhere. What should I do? John. "Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM" wrote: "jmatt21" wrote in message ...

Hi, sorry to bother you, I managed to get the spell check back, but it only
has the option on American English, but I live in the Uk. Is there somewhere where I can get the English dictionary installed? Thank you John. |
