Outlook Express doesn't have a spell checker built in. Click the following address to download a free checker for OE. http://www.majorgeeks.com/article.php?sid=2952&cat=10 -- Jerry Never believe in miracles, Rely on them "philb" <philbradley0007(removethis)@tiscali.co.uk> wrote in message news:e0Nm%23DP0GHA.4176@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > seem to have lost spellcheck in outook express? > any ideas > > also, i cant add any folders in the outlook bar on the right? > > > > -- > Phil. > |

If you mean the task bar next to the clock, You can't. But you can create a Quick launch bar and drag your shortcuts to it. -- Jerry Never believe in miracles, Rely on them "philb" <philbradley0007(removethis)@tiscali.co.uk> wrote in message news:e0Nm%23DP0GHA.4176@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > seem to have lost spellcheck in outook express? > any ideas > > also, i cant add any folders in the outlook bar on the right? > > > > -- > Phil. > |

philb wrote: > seem to have lost spellcheck in outook express? > any ideas Neither Windows XP, nor any other version of Windows, has ever come with a Spell Checking facility. Outlook Express uses the spell checker that comes with Microsoft Word, (or another Microsoft Office program) if you have it installed. If you don't have Word or Office installed, you probably don't have a spell checker. However there are several downloadable freeware/shareware alternative spell checkers that work with Outlook Express and Outlook. Since I have no personal experience with any of these, I'll let someone else recommend one. On the other hand, if a Microsoft Office component *is* installed, try the instructions at http://michaelstevenstech.com/spellcheck.htm > also, i cant add any folders in the outlook bar on the right? When you say "Outlook," do you mean "Outlook Express" here too? Be aware that Outlook and Outlook Express are two very different programs. Please clarify exactly what you mean by "the outlook bar on the right." The location of various bars in both Outlook and Outlook Express is up to the user and what you see on the right may not be on the right here. Also what does "i cant add" mean? Please be specific. What happens when you try? If you get an error message, please quote it verbatim.

Instead, it relies upon the presence of other Microsoft applications, such as the Office Suite, Word, or the Works _Suite_ (which includes Word, not the regular Works). There are also some 3rd-party shareware/freeware solutions available at any of the many shareware sites on the Internet Spell Magic seems well thought-of, though I haven't tried it myself: http://www.alcodasoftware.com/spell-magic.htm. > also, i cant add any folders in the outlook bar on the right? > > > What happens when you try? What specific error messages do you get? What specific troubleshooting steps have you already taken, and what were the results of each?

Spellcheck and Outlook are a part of Microsoft Office. Did you have a trial offer preinstalled on your computer? If this is true these functions will turn off after x days unless you forward Microsoft an obscene amount of money. |
