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.

Release to manufacturing.

From:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Softwar...ase_life_cycle

Microsoft and others use the term "release to manufacturing" (RTM) to refer
to this version (for commercial products, like Windows XP, as in, "Build
2600 is the Windows XP RTM release"), and "release to Web" (RTW) for freely
downloadable products. Typically, RTM is weeks or months before General
Availability (GA) because the RTM version must be burned to disc and boxed
etc.

I had the same problem after uninstalling Office 2003, then installing Office
2007.
Office 2007 uses new proofing tools and OE can't use them because its
designed to use older tools.
This is the easy fix if you've still got your old Office 2003 discs.
Insert the Office 2003 Disc 1. When it loads, enter the serial number.
Choose Custom Install. Uncheck all the Programs in the list.Check the bottom
most option. note the nested screen, set each top level to be NOT
AVAILABLE(red X Icon)
Expand the OFFICE SHARED FEATURES branch and locate the PROOFING TOOLS in
the list. Expand Proofing Tools and choose English. Set it to RUN FROM MY
COMPUTER. Uncheck any other language you see in the list.
Finish the installation. Reboot your PC. Re-open Outlook Express, choose
Tools, Options, Spell Checker. Set Language to English(UK)

Thanks Bruce!
I used your option "C" (using my old Office XP 2002 English dictionary) to
correct the "Fench Only" selection for spelling check in OE on my new, clean
installation. I just had loaded WIN XP Pro SP2 along with Office 2007 Pro
Plus and found this problem.

Your solution worked like a champ! Thanks. I hope MS will make a change to
this software so others will not have to serch for the solution like I did.

All the best,
Jerry

You're welcome. Don't expect anything to be *fixed*. Since many people never
had Office, and Outlook Express never had its own spell check, and is no
longer being produced, there is nothing to fix.
