Default Missing Spell Check Icon

A friend is running OE6 and Win XP, same as I am.

When she gets to the Create (message) screen, she does not see the spell
check icon.
How can we get this back?

Thanks

Roger

OE does not come with a spelling checker. It uses the spelling checker from
any Office program that has one. Do you have such a program?

If not you could try one of these:

Free spellchecker.
which I use on my laptop, which has Works.

$15 shareware

And here's a freeware that checks your spelling as you type:
TinySpell

In addition to what Frank said, if she does have a compatible spell check
installed, then open a new messageright click the toolbar of itcustomise,
try adding the icon from the left pane?
