Outlook Express Spell Check
 
We just set up a customer with Win XP SP3

She cannot get her spell check to work.

All the options are cheked in OE.

Is there anything we are missing?

OE 6 does not come with it's own spell check. You need Word or an MS Office
program, pre 2007. The spell checker in Works 4 through 6 will work with OE,
but not other editions. If you do not have such a program, you can download
a free spell check at one of these sites.

Outlook Express Spell Check
 
Outlook Express has always used the spell checker from Microsoft Word.
No Word--no spell check. (And in the case of Word 2007 it doesn't matter
because Word 2007's spell checker doesn't work with Outlook Express.)

Your solution is to Google for a third party spell checker that
integrates with Outlook Express.
