To Check the Spelling in Messages

Outlook Express uses the spelling checker provided with Microsoft 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.
