I am running Windows 2000, Office 2000. Outlook Express spell check button does not highlite. There is no error message, just no spell check. I have searched MS files, but no help. Any solutions?

I don't know any specifics, but someone told me there was a problem with Outlook Express 5.5 and the spell check with Word 2000. I use Office 97 and 5.5 works fine.

chriswood - break out your copy of Office 2000 and check and see if spell-check is installed... I had the same problem and had to re-install spell check that way.

You mean you can't use the spellcheck option when you type a new message within OE?

Are you talking about Outlook "express" the built in e-mail application with Windows
or
Microsoft "Outlook" from the Office suite?
