Default Auto Insert date in Word 2007

Hi there,

When using Word 2007, when you type "2007" and press the RETURN key straight
after, it automotically inserts todays date. This is annoying especially when
typing Financial accounts! Is there anyway to disable this feature?

Help would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

Default Auto Insert date in Word 2007

Press Alt+F11 to display the Visual Basic Editor. In the Immediate window,
which can be displayed by pressing Ctrl+G, type the following:

Application.DisplayAutoCompleteTips = False

and press Enter.
