Your loss of English-language spell-checking is a side effect of installing Office 2007.

How can I get an English (U.K.) spell-checker? My old computer with OE6 checked in English!-Christine HendersonĪOutlook Express doesn’t actually have a spell-check feature of its own, but it will exploit Microsoft Office’s spell-checker if it’s installed. I am English, but I can get only French in the OE6 spell-checker. I have a Windows XP Media Center Edition PC, which includes Internet Explorer and Outlook Express as well as Office 2007. Spell check features still work in Office 2007 as well. When running the spell checker, Outlook Express should no longer crash. Now reinstall the English Dictionary from. Locate Sharing -> Proofing and set entire category to not installed. Follow the prompts until you get to the part where you select which parts of office you want to install. This will give you the option to change your installed settings. Go to Start -> Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs -> Offce 2007 -> Remove. Solution: If 2007 shared proofing tools are installed, installing a third party spelling dictionary might cause this scenario. Since a copy of Office 2003 is not available, cannot use the proofing tools from that version. Now every time you spell check, Outlook Express crashes. From OE, go to Tools -> Spelling -> Select English Dictionary. Downloaded OE English 2.1 dictionary from Softpedia and installed it. English dictionary no longer appeared in OE.

Why in the world would they disable English spell checking? Google would have created a superior dictionary with the upgrade, where MS creates….nothing, and makes it hard to even find out what to do.Īre you a travel blogger? A local blogger? Send me a note, I’m trying to collect a list of people blogging travel information for their local areas: Purchased a brand new computer with XP and activated Office 2007 60-Day trial license (although a full version should still run into the same problem). This one is pure insanity since the fix is cheap and easy for MS.

Yet another case where MS is absolutely *clueless* to the needs of users, and arrogantly provides downgrades as you upgrade to newer, potentially even more frustrating versions of Office. I can’t vouch for the program yet since I just put it on, but it appears legitimate and good. This utility fixed the problem by adding a new English dictionary. The staff at this center uses that simple utility *daily* so why is Outlook Express spelling reserved only for the French? I love France, especially Paris, France and their superior Freedom Fries, but I think we need some spelling help here in the USA as well. Noting the CDs boldly proclaimed “made in Canada” I first thought “ha – it’s those pesky Quebecois poking fun at Les Americains, oui? NON! After the typical 5 minutes of surfing anywere but to find answers about Microsoft product defects, to my amazement I read this note from MS which states:Īt first I thought it was an odd joke site, but indeed it’s true. “Sacre bleu”, I said after throwing in some Francais and noting that only the English words were listed as “wrong”. After a day the staff asked me why their Outlook spell checking was working for French only.

I installed a new PC yesterday for a State Welcome center that came with the new office 2007 programs.
