Word 2003 AutoComplete
Is there a Collect Words function in Word 2003's AutoComplete like there is
in Open Office 2.2? It automatically suggests completions for words used often in the particular document. The list of often-used-words could then be saved for future documents. Thanks for the help! Janet |

Word 2003 AutoComplete
Word has two different functions, AutoCorrect
(http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Custom...utoCorrect.htm) and AutoText (http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Custom.../AutoText.htm). What you're thinking of is more like AutoCorrect. In Word's jargon, AutoComplete isn't a separate function; it's the little yellow tag that pops up when you type something that Word recognizes as the beginning of the name of an AutoText entry. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

Word 2003 AutoComplete
The AutoCorrect Dialogue window has a tab called AutoText. It has a box which
can be checked (or not) for Show AutoComplete Suggestions. My question was about a 'sub-function' (automatic word collection) that would fall under this AutoComplete function. |

Word 2003 AutoComplete
Word has AutoComplete in Word 2003, but it does not have the power to
somehow intuitively add words to your AutoText library. You have to do this manually. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Janetb" wrote in message ...
