Default When I type 2006 at the end of a line it puts in 2006-02-28. How.

Hi ?B?Q3VtYnJpYW53aXphcmQ=?=,

Every time I type 2006 at the end of a line in word, it automatically amends
it to 2006-02-28 (or the current date) This isn't a format I would want to
use, but does anyone know how to turn it off?

Well, the "short" way is to press ESC

The "long" way is Tools/AutoCorrect options/AutoText. Deactivate the checkbox
for Autocomplete. But please note this will suppress other things, as well.
