[Ham-Computers] Language in outlook express

[Hsu, Aaron (NBC Universal)]

FYI, Microsoft officially acknowledges this issue and also suggests 3rd party spell-check options.

(for those who don't wish to follow the link, the problem occurs if you install an Office 2007 product - the new dictionaries are not compatible with OLE 6.0.)

13th message down, February 21 date.  If that does not work search Google for "oe french dictionary".  This is a regular occurrence and French ends up the one available.
