No Dictionary??

J

Jetster

So I got a new mac with a preview of office. But I downloaded a free
version of Entourage from my Hosted Exchange Company (mi8.com). Now I
don't remember if I had a dictionary before but I don't have one now
and I was wondering if this was due to the 30 preview of office
expiring (entourage did not expire, just the rest of the office suite).
Do all the office apps have thier own dictionary or does entourage have
its own? Can I re-install the dictionary?? This is really bad because I
use entourage for business emails and now my typos are hard to find.

Any advice would help.

Thank you!

Hi,

Entourage uses the Office-wide dictionary that's also available in Word. I
don't know if the dictionary gets installed if you are only using Entourage
all by itself. There is a slight chance that there's a malfunction because
you didn't remove the Test Drive properly, so use the Remove Office tool in
your Microsoft Office folder (in the Applications folder) to uninstall the
Test Drive, and see if the problem persists.

I've just seen that you are talking about typos as well, which makes things
unclear. Are you actually talking about the dictionary (Tools>Dictionary),
or do you mean the spell check feature?
