[Richard]

Is there a way to turn on spell checking using a registry key for outlook
(not OEx)?

Thanks

Is there a way to turn on spell checking using a registry key for outlook
(not OEx)?

What's wrong with using the setup options in the program itself?

 

[Richard]

Unfortunately we have around ~2,500 pc's where it may or may not be turned
on. Take that number and average out the number of people who can actually
follow instructions and that leaves us with about ~2499 pc's to make sure
auto-spell check is enabled...

1. check the outlook ADM pack for the reg key and roll it out using group
policy.
2. if not there, get a tool such as regshot to compare before and after
snapshots of the registry to ID the key. regshot leads me to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Options\Spelling (1
should on, 0 is off)
you can then push it out using logon scripts or group policy.

Diane,

Not trying to hijack this thread, but do you know of a solution for spell
checking text fields in OL2000 custom forms? This has been a major source
of fustration for our organization.

Thanks,

Tony
