Spell Check from French back to English

When you upgrade earlier versions of Office to the 2007 Office system, the old spelling checker files are removed for some languages and these files are replaced with the newer versions included in the 2007 Office system and these new files are not compatible with Outlook Express.

Outlook Express do not has a spell checker of its own because this feature requires an in-built dictionary. Downloading a spell check program will resolve the issue. I have performed a general search on the Internet and found the following web links from where you can download the free spell check program for Outlook Express:
