Check if the registry key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared
Tools\Proofing Tools\1.0\Override" exists and if it does delete it.
If that is not the problem
Office Button Word Options Add Ins Manage (select disabled items)
Click on the English dictionary and re-enable it.
Close and re-open Word and Outlook.

Thanks for your help however I was referring to OutLook 2007 as well
as Word, Power Point...I do not use Express. All of these worked
prior to the 2007 upgrade and now they don't.
Any ideas?
Thank you

Hi Paul,
The 'french only' speller is only in MS Internet Explorer's Outlook
Express, which isn't a part of Office and has never had its own
spell check capability. Outlook Express hasn't been updated to
recognize the new English language Proofing Tools that Office 2007
provides (that include contextutal spelling) and whether the
Internet Explorer team at MS plans to update Outlook Express is
probably only a matter of conjecture at this point.
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).

Thank you very much - However Dell didn't give me any disc's - they
gave me a
cardboard disc awhich says I don't need a real cd because I have
this paper
disc. As usual trying to get anything out of Dell customer service
is a joke. (which is why I would never buy anything from Dell again)
Is there any other way to get this fixed. What about Microsoft any
word from
them on this inferior product they put ut to increase
productivity?? --
