Default Capital Letter in a sentence

The only thing I can suggest is to see if there is an AutoCorrect entry for
Department department. (Although, in your example, "department store"
*should* be lowercased.)

WEIRD YES !!

If I type: "When I went to the Department store" the "D" in department

will
automatically turn into a lowercase letter.

Are you saying that you type a capital letter and Word changes to

lowercase
or just that it doesn't automatically cap it? The latter is not possible
since Word can't know what words need to be capitalized (unless they're
spelling errors when lowercased); if the former, then something weird is
definitely going on.

When I type a sentence and need a first letter of words capitalized

within
the sentence other than the first letter of a sentence Microsoft
automatically makes it lower case. How do I stop this from happening.
