access to English Dictionary: Desktop, Word, Outlook? debsnead 6/27/2007 6:08:01 AM How can I set up access to an English dictionary to look up meanings of words from articles on the Net, or to access a dictionary in Word, or Outlook. And, can a dictionary be added to the toolbars of Word or Outlook? Can a dictionary be added to my desktop? If so, what is the procedure to do so in Windows Vista Home Basic?
