I am just wanting to know if Vista has spellcheck. I can not find it. I
have the version home basic. If anyone knows how to help me please help.

Re: using spellcheck

No Vista does not have built in Spellchecking. (I believe it should though).
If you are typing emails in Windows Mail, the Spellchecker depends on your
installation of Microsoft Office. Vista x64 does not recognize MS Office
grammar and spell checker though, since you would need to have native 64 bit
version of Office for this to work.

Re: using spellcheck

Windows Mail has spell check - by default - without any installation of
Office. It is about time too. All you have to do is turn it on in the
Windows Mail options.
