It  is my understanding that you have to have a Microsoft product that has a
spell checker installed in order for the spellchecker to work in Outlook
Express.  You could do a minimum install of Word off of your Small Business
CD.  Just run the setup off the CD and it will give you options for what you
want to install.  Highlight Word on the options list and click change
options.  That will supply a list of all the Word components.  If disk space
is a problem you can eliminate some of the add ons.
