    I use Windows Live Mail. I'm a big user of spell check and also have come to appreciate the auto-correct function. When I enter "teh" it changes it to "the" is what I'm referring to.

    What I'm being challenged with tonight is trying to find how to update the misspelled word and the corrected word. I have a few things that drive me nuts... like I can't seem to help myself from typing "abouve" when I mean "above." I want to update the auto-correct table but have not been successful in finding the dang thing.

    Anyone been down this path?

    As far as I know you cant to that in WLM. Outlook will let you add/edit AutoCorrect entries.

    Thanks Arie. I don't have outlook (expensive to buy) so that's not an option for me. I can't imagine what the WLM developers were thinking to make these options unaccessible. There is a lot about WLM that is nice but also a lot that seems was implemented in a rush. Having "grown up" with Outlook Express I'm comfortable with the "feel" of WLM versus the others I tried like gmail, pegasus, yahoo, etc when I switched to W7. Guess it's just a trade off.

    Appreciate your reply as I didn't think anyone was going to comment.
