Can I stop dates printing as '21 April 2005-04-21' in Word whe...
Often but not always when I add a date into letters and hit the ENTER key, I
get a date printed as 21 April 2005-04-21, instead of for example the 21 April 2005 that I would type. Is there a way of stopping this add-on to my style? |

The only way to avoid it is to press ESC or the spacebar when you get the
AutoComplete tip. -- Suzanne S.

Yes I realise this 'method' is possible, but its certainly not ideal is it
particularly if I want to right justify the address and date aspect of a letter for instance. But thanks for trying! "Suzanne S.
