Thanks so much to both you and Dave. This helped me too. Great advise and

Okay, your issue is just as that one guy said. You're going into the 'tools'
tab inside of the Email window. to fix the issue just click outside of the
email, this will not close it. When you're outside of it at the top where it
shows 'file' 'edit' all that stuff, go to tools, options, spelling, then at
the bottom it will give you a down arrow. Click on that, and make sure it
shows it as 'english'. If it does click on it again and make SUPER sure, if
not then set it once. Then, instead of clicking 'ok', click apply. This will
completely fix the issue. If not, I'm clueless.

Thanks for that help with the spell check- it was driving me mad. It's so
easy when you know how.

If all steps are followed and it continues to give you the same message, try
clicking on a language other than the one selected, apply and try again. For
whatever reason, my language was showing English in the drop down box, and
everything was selected, however the moment 'apply' was clicked, it would
give me the same message as before "This language is no longer available for
spell checking". Once I tried setting the default language to French, and
applied changes, and then went back again and changed it back to English, it
worked like a charm. I hope this helps.
