My new Dell Studio (Vista) came with Office 2007. Spell Check on both
Powerpoint and Word identify common English words (like idea) as misspelled
and only offer Fench Spelling suggestions. I have already set the Dictionary
to be English and I still have this problem. Any suggestions?

That is somewhat odd, Vista was replaced by Windows 7 over half a year
