Does anyone know where I can get a copy of Microsoft Greetings 2001? I need
it to repair Outlook Express v.6. I actually removed the software from my
computer and put the disk in the trash - not the trash on my computer, but
my real trash can. Now OE wants to re-install every time I send an e-mail
because it used Greetings 2001 to check the spelling.

This article is more likely to be a help. It doesn't address Greetings, but
Works. It is the same problem you are experiencing.

The Spelling command in Outlook Express 6 is no longer available after you
install Works 7.0

or this:
Picture It!: The Windows Installer in Picture It! runs when you click Send or
when you run the spelling checker in Outlook Express

Thanks for the advice. Neither of those links solved my problem. I'm still
trying to find Microsoft Greetings 2001 or bite the bullet and upgrade by
OE.

Do you have Works? Works comes with Word, it is a cheaper option than a full
Office application.
Have you tried eBay?
