| | After installing Office 2007 RTM, you dont have English as a
choice
of
| | language in the spell checker of Outlook Express and potentially
other
| | programs.
| |
| |
| | a.. Office 2007 is replacing the v.3 English Proofing Tools
that
| shipped
| | in prior versions of Office with a new version (v.6). There are a
| number
| of
| | changes in this new version, but the one that is causing this
problem
| is
| | that Outlook Express doesn't understand the new English Proofing
| Tools.
| This
| | is a problem because Outlook Express has never shipped with its
own
| proofing
| | tools but has used the ones shipped by Office.
| | b.. There are a few scenarios in which you won't run into this
| problem:
| | a.. An upgrade from Office 2003 or earlier to Office 2007 RTM
if
| you
| | don't manually uninstall the earlier version of Office.
| | b.. A configuration in which Office 2003 (or earlier) has not
been
| | removed.
| | For example, I have Office 2003 still on both of my
computers,
and
| I
| | still have English in Outlook Express.
| | c.. The workaround for this problem is to install the English
| dictionary
| | from Office 2003 (or Office XP). There should be no need to
install
| all
| of
| | Office just the dictionary. The English Proofing Tools can be
found
in
| the
| | Custom Install tree under Office Shared Features|Proofing
| Tools|English.

| |
