Vista spell check not working

I too had this issue with the error message "Language is no longer
available for spell checking. Please select another in the spelling
options dialoge".
and changed it to German then did the spell check (it
was written in English) and when I did the spell check it said the spelling
check was complete (indicating it was correct)! So I then changed the spell
check back to "English" and
misspelled words on purpose-it still said your spelling check is complete.
Any
other suggestions?

It doesn't spell check for me until I press the 'send' button. Then the
suggested corrections appear. I like the old way better but don't know if
it's possble with Windows Mail.

Carla,

I did what you and others suggested: I changed the language to Spanish,
applied, then back to English, and applied. I went back to the email I was
creating, and like you, it didn't tell me intentionlly misspelled words were
misspelled. Here's what I discovered:

Anything I typed after I reset the language and that was below the original
section was spellchecked. Anything I had previously typed was ignored.
Also, I noticed that on new messages it works now.

Hope this helps. It's annoying and buggy, but I'm sure it will be addressed.

I'm new to Vista, but very disappointed with it's proprietary nature. I CAN'T
seem to be able to check spelling, changing from english to french and then
back again is not an option to activate this function (as I've read someone
elses comments)...why can't I simply click on "spell check"?

HELP!
