| 148643 | 2003-05-30 19:00:00 | Has there ever been any hint that this might happen ? I run v6.0 and it is'nt there. When I want to check I go over to Word and use the Thesaurus there, and I am sure there would be a few on-line, but it is not the same as having in the program itself. Maybe I am getting too used to having everthing "convenient". :| ;) |

In saying that, you can possibly download a plugin for OE, I know that people have made certain plugins for OE that do magic for the app :-) Sorry I couldnt be more help Chill. |

| 148646 | 2003-06-02 03:50:00 | I suggest you download WordWeb v2.1 from www.wordweb.info This was developed at Princeton University You can have it start on bootup, and sit in the tray for when you need it |

| 148647 | 2003-06-09 06:21:00 | OE has never come with a dictionary or otherwise. You need Word, or something with it in. And is separate. You have to buy it. And NO, MS aint that kind to include a spell-checker in it lol. They havent so far, but it'll be a miracle if they ever do! And as some have said you can d/l free spell-checkers, so it works. | Spacemannz (808) | ||
