When I type the date in my customized date format (ie. April 15 2009) as soon
as I hit return Word automatically inserts 2009-15-04. The only way I have
found to prevent this is to add a space before hitting return. But surely
there's a way to turn off this auto-complete function?

Open the VBA editor (ALT+F11)
Press CTRL+G to open the Immediate Window
Type Application.DisplayAutoCompleteTips = False
and press enter.
(Replace False with True and repeat to turn it on again)
Close the VBA editor.
