Ron, I would like to do the same. I do have Office XP disks but never had
Office XP installed on this computer. Can you advise on how to install just the English dictionary?

THANK YOU Bruce - this fix seemed to work for me just fine. I used old
Office XP discs. I must say that I was not prepared for the new look and feel of Office 2007. I consider myself to be quite proficient in Word and Excel but I have to start all over with finding my way. I wouldn't have upgraded the Office, if I'd known. I am sure a lot of people are scratching their heads with the new layout. Oh well....

Office 2007 destroys the spell checker in Outlook Express.
The easiest solution is to install a free spell checker that works in Outlook Express.
