Language Problem After Install of Office 2007 Home and Student Edi

I installed office 2007 Home and Student edition on two computers, I am
licensed for three. In both cases it changed the default dictionary in
Outlook Express to French from the English it has always been. I went to
Tools/Options/Spelling to try and change the dictionary back to English and
French is now the only available choice in the drop down menu.

Can anyone advise me as to how to proceed to reverse or correct this change.
Thank you,

Hi Rob,

The 'french only' speller is occurs only in MS Internet Explorer's Outlook Express, which isn't a part of Office and has never had
its own
spell check capability.



The Internet Explorer team has not updated Outlook Express to recognize the new English language Proofing Tools that Office 2007 .
provides (these include contextutal spelling)

There are a number of 3rd party add-ins for Outlook Express that folks without Office have used and they should work in Outlook
Express as well.


Here are a couple that folks have reported work for them. The 2nd one has links to spellers for other than U.S. English (although
with some qualifications).
