Default Why won't my program automatically insert the date when I star
I have Word 2007. I did exactly that, but it didn't turn it on. Any other
suggestions?

For Word 2003, see this article:

Turn on or off AutoComplete

If you are using Word 2007, do this to enable autocomplete for dates: Press
Alt+F11 to display the Visual Basic Editor. Press Ctrl+G to display the
Immediate window. Type

Application.DisplayAutoCompleteTips = True

and press Enter. Close the Visual Basic Editor.

I have to type the full date instead of just the first four letters. Why?
