Vista Mail - Dutch spelling Check

I want to have my Dutch "Windows mail" to be able to use the Dutch Spelling checker rather than using the Standard "English, German, French or Spanish, for obvious reasons

Because I purchased a dutch version of Office home 2007 I am able to use Word 2007 as a spelling checker; however I am not able to find the settings which enable "Windows Mail" to use "Word 2007" as standard email editor.

Seems like Bill has found a new way to earn some extra money, or am I mistaken?

Anyone with the same experience and a workaround or proper solution?

Regards
Bernd Oldenbeuving

No, Bill is not making extra money on this because no Dutch spell
checker is available for Windows Mail.

The latest Windows Live Mail beta has a Dutch spell checker, but
like any beta it has a few bugs:

Hey Gary,

thx for your quick and detailed reply!

Do you know if there is a way to use "Word 2007" as the standard email editor in "Windows Mail"? This would be most convenient, because it has a built in Dutch Spelling checker, and thus would be a good workaround to implement a Spelling checker in "Windows Mail"

Re: Vista Mail - Dutch spelling Check

Windows Mail has no provision to allow Word to be its email editor.
All you can do is a manual copy and paste from Word into WM.
