Works comes in two versions, One of the versions (Works Suite?) includes
Word and that spelling checker works in OE. The other, cheaper, version
does not have Word and its spelling checker won't work in OE.

I have works installed on my desktop and the spell checker works with it.
I have XP Home installed on that machine.

Hi bajabum,

I am afraid you are out of luck with Works, see their website Top Issues,
Works does not install a spellchecker for Outlook Express of MSN
Explorer.
