Recently, we showed you just how to just utilize the major thesaurus (none personalized thesaurus) when carrying out a spell check or automatically inspecting punctuation as you type. You can do the exact same in Outlook, but it’s a slightly different treatment to transform this setup in Outlook.

To have Outlook only utilize the main thesaurus, click the “File” tab.

On the backstage screen, click “Options” in the list of products on the left.

On the “Outlook Options” dialog box, click “Mail” in the checklist of things left wing.

NOTE: If you opened up the “Outlook Options” dialog box from within an e-mail message, the “Mail” screen is active by default.

In the “Compose messages” section, click the “Spelling and also Autocorrect” button.

On the “Proofing” display, in the “When correcting spelling in Microsoft Office programs” section, select the “Suggest from main thesaurus just” check box so there is a check mark in package.

Click “ALRIGHT” on the “Editor Options” dialog box to accept your change and close the dialog box.

You are returned to the “Outlook Options” dialog box. To close it, click “OKAY”.

This setting is likewise offered in Word, Excel, as well as PowerPoint, however it’s accessed differently than in Outlook. Switching on or off this setting in one program does NOT influence the setting in the various other programs.
