Autocorrect: messages in ideographic language, and changes not saved
I removed and reinstalled Office 2003 and updated it but I still cannot have
autororrect save and I get the error message (I assume it is) in some ideographic language. In the hope that someone can interpret thsi for me, I attach it hough I do appreciate many epole do not like binary attachements in newsgroups. You help in fixing this will be greatly appreciated. Bill |

Hi Bill,
I removed and reinstalled Office 2003 and updated it but I still cannot have autororrect save and I get the error message (I assume it is) in some ideographic language. In the hope that someone can interpret thsi for me, I attach it hough I do appreciate many epole do not like binary attachements in newsgroups. Looks like Chinese... If the suggest I'm going to make doesn't help, you should take this to the word.international.features newsgroup. My best guess is that Word thinks it's working in a different language than you intend. In the Tips section of my website you'll find an article on language formatting in Word. Read through that, and check the settings in each of the three places it mentions. While you're in the Office Language Tools dialog box, check the list of enabled languages specially for Asian languages, and remove them.

This is the only message which comes up in a syrnage character set, and it is therefore asscoaietd (somehow) with why autocorrect cannot permanently learn new mappings. I can live without autocorrect so it is not a show stopper. Rgds, Bill |

My guess is that the .acl file is corrupt or in the wrong language. Uninstalling/reinstalling Office rarely resolves any problems because many files, templates and most of the registry entries are not replaced. The acl file won't be overwritten because it is a user file. Find and remove the ..acl file: then open Word and run Detect and Repair. Test AutoCorrect again. -- Terry Farrell - Word MVP http://word.mvps.org/ "Bill Davy" wrote in message ... : "Cindy M -WordMVP-" wrote in message : news:VA.0000aa5f.0081a1ca@speedy... : Hi Bill, : : I removed and reinstalled Office 2003 and updated it but I still cannot : have : autororrect save and I get the error message (I assume it is) in some : ideographic language.

That is the answer. Deleted all the .acl files files I could fine, did
Detect and Repair from Word, and it now seems to be working normally. Not sure if anything good has gone but I am happy. Bill "TF" terryfarrell%40%6d%73%6e%2ecom wrote in message ...
