How do I auto text the full date in Word?
The month completes automatically, but not the date or year.

Unfortunately, AutoText just doesn't work this way any more. If you refuse
Word's help to complete the month, however, then it will offer an AutoComplete suggestion for the entire date. -- Suzanne S.

Thanks, at least its easier to type the full month than it is to type the
date and year! "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Unfortunately, AutoText just doesn't work this way any more.

I agree, especially if it's a short month. It *is* annoying, though, that
you don't get a prompt for the whole date. -- Suzanne S.
