AutoCorrect Options don't hold
My AutoCorrect Options quit holding. First I tried "Using the /a switch (Word
2000 and above only)" at http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErr...ngMenusEtc.htm. This retains my settings from one docu to the next until I close all windows containing my Word 2003 docus. When I reopen Word after that the settings are changed again. Now I'm attempting to "Deleting and recreating the corrupt registry values" at http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErr...ngMenusEtc.htm, however this article only addresses Word 97, Word 2000, and Word 2002. Are there instructions for Word 2003 anywhere? Thanks, K. |

AutoCorrect Options don't hold
When you start Word with the /a switch, you *cannot* save any settings. You
must open Word normally and change settings for them to be saved. If the settings are still not saved, then you need to delete the Registry Data key as described, and yes, this article does apply to all versions of Word; you just need to change the version number when searching for the key: Word 2003 is version 11.0. -- Suzanne S.

Thanks. Appreciate the quick answer. Messing in the registry terrifies me but
the AutoCorrect mess is reason enough to give it a try. K. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: When you start Word with the /a switch, you *cannot* save any settings.
