Dictionary problems
 

I have installed office 7 and IE7 and when I now run spell checker in OE6 I
find the default language is French and there are no other options in the
drop down menu.
How can I get the UK English standard dictionary back?
I have UK English installed in Office 2007 but this doesn't seem to connect
to OE6.

You have to install the proofing tools for a previous version of Office.
Office 2007 does not support spell checking in OE, it seems.

Thanks Steve - will try this from old 2003 cd. Another example of non-joined
up MS thinking?

More likely an example of forced-upgrades MS thinking. Alternatively, an
example of screw-users-of-older-versions MS thinking. It is the way of MS in
all things. Just ask any Visual Basic developer, or Win98 user, or Outlook
Express user.

Please stick to one (1) OE-specific newsgroup when you're asking a question,
and always begin a new thread about /your/ problems. Thanks.
