Nice tip.!

 

Does this happen even with SP1?

Subject: Bug: Autocorrect issue w/Outlook 2010 and older versions of Word
(work-around)

 

Outlook's advanced spell-check and autocorrect features rely on Microsoft
Word.  Apparently Outlook 2010 can't locate the Word executable for older
versions of Word.  Even if you are upgrading to Outlook 2010 from a previous
version of the entire Office suite, Outlook's ability to locate the
executable can [will?] break. When this happens, all spell-check and
autocorrect features become grayed as if administratively disabled.

 

Quick-fix: Find and copy the word.exe file to the Outlook 2010 installation
folder.  

 

As an example, copy word.exe.

 

From:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\

To:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\

 

Restart Outlook, and the functionality will be restored. This issue does not
appear to be known or addressed by Microsoft at this time.
