Auto date complete
Hello
I'm in the UK. When I type in 27 June - Word completes the date. The screen shows 27 June 07-06-19. As I'm not a touch typist, I don't see it happening, and have to delete it later. I know this feature can be turned off, as iIve done it before. But I can't recall where it is. Can anyone tell me how I turn this feature off? Thanks in advance! Andrew |

Auto date complete
What version of Word is this? If it's Word 2003, Tools - AutoCorrect
Options - AutoText tab, remove the check next to Show AutoComplete Suggestions. If it's Word 2007, you'll need a macro to do it, as described he http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com/2...-in-word-2007/ -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Wooster" wrote in message ...

Auto date complete
Herb,
Just stumbled across this post as the auto complete has been doing my head in! I've used your link, recorded the macro and am now at peace with the world again! Thank you, you're a lifesaver!
