Check the spelling in messages

To check the spelling in messages

Outlook Express uses the spelling checker provided with the following Microsoft Office 95 and Office 97 programs: Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint. If you do not have one of these programs installed, the Spelling command is not available.

In the New Message window, click the Spelling button on the toolbar, or click the Tools menu, and then click Spelling.

Tip

To customize the way your spelling checker works, on the Tools menu, click Options, and then select the Spelling tab.
