I use Outlook and not the express kind, but here are a few links. M$ even has a page about this.

Of course if you start editing the registry and mess things up, it's not mine or Bill Gate's fault. :)

I think those links should handle your problem.
Just remember to BACKUP YOUR REGISTRY before editing it!

Also, I found this information by searching at YAHOO with the following phrase:

"outlook express" AND "Spell Check"


Let me know if you need help beyond that.
