Spell checker in OE not on?

[toyzone]

I have turned on the spell checker in O E though when completing mail for sending, it will not check, and say's it is not working, I cannot operate manually from tools either.

OE doesn't have a spell buil-in spell checker although the option you are looking at is there because OE can use the spell checker built into MS Office.
If you don't have MS Office installed then you won't have spell checking in OE.

So your solution is to either install MS Office, try a workaround to get OE's spell check working, or use Mozilla Thunderbird instead which has built in spell checking.
