Thanks. It worked and I wonder what we would do without other people
figuring stuff out for us. It certainly isn't something found in books!

Can you help me through this ?

Thanks

You need to be in the Windows Mail program. "Internet Options"
is not in Windows Mail, only in Internet Explorer.

Not working very well right now. Weird as it is, though. <G>

Internet Explorer does not have a spell checker. This is a Windows Mail
newsgroup. Try Tools | Options in Windows Mail and not IE.

This fix worked for me. The only thing different is that I changed my
language to French, hit apply and then closed Mail. On reopening, I changed
my language back t English and the spell checker worked great.

This also worked for me, went to "Tools" at the top of Windows Mail,
"Options" "Spelling" Chose another language "apply" Chose English "apply" and
"OK" and it worked. Also note that I could not read my e-mail attachments
until a fine Hp Advisor (the exception, from Canada) helped me to enter the
Registry Edit and make some changes and Voila! I could see the attachments.
It is just one day of ownership with Windows Vista Premium and there are
indeed some aggravating problems to be found and hoping for a stress free
season...
