Spell checking in Outlook Express uses the Office spellchecker if it is available. If there is no Office installed, there is no spellcheck.
Microsoft's Office 2007 switches Outlook Express spell-checkers to work only in French. Those disposed to communicate in other languages are being advised to use third-party programs.
Microsoft has confirmed the problem, and explains it comes about when the Office 2007 installation process removes older spell-checker files. The notice invites users to solicit advice about third-party spell-checkers on Microsoft's community forum. The new spellcheck files installed with Office 2007 do not work with Outlook Express 6.

Yes, i was surprised to see that the language for the spell checker was FRENCH!
I found on the internet Spell checker for OE, a freeware program and it works perfectly.
Thanks for the info.
