How can I type otu without word automatically changing it to out
I require to use the term otu as part of technical documents. If I turn off
all options in the dictionary and try and add the term to the custom dictionary, it is still changed to out. If I ignore uppercase and type it in caps it is still changed. the only way I can get it to stay is if I cursor down afterwards inwhich case I can add it to the custom dictionary for that time only. This is driving me mad as I have to use the units full name rather than it's abbreviation every time I type it. |

This is an AutoCorrection. You can press Ctrl+z to undo it when it happens
or you can go to Tools AutoCorrect, enter otu in the Replace box and then click on Delete to remove it completely. -- Enjoy, Tony "Pat Gregory" Pat wrote in message ...
