I just started using my new laptop. Outlook Express was preinstalled. The language is correct in the control panel but is set on french in Outlook. There isn't any option to change it in the options > spelling. Does anyone know how I can change the setting to english?

Did you install Office 2007?If you find my response helpful, please click on the "Vote as Helpful" button!Thank you!My Blog
