Office 2007 does not support Spell Check in OE. You can download a freeware
spell check which will work fine.

Hi All,

For no apparent reason, my spellcheck in OE has switched to French. The
only 'new' feature I can report is that I have installed Office 2007 which
isn't linked to OE as far as I know. On the off chance, I did check the
language settings for Office 2007 and it shows English (U.S.) and no other
languages are enabled.

Any ideas? It is amusing but I rely on the spellchecker so it would be
nice if it stopped recommending faculte' for faculty
