Autocomplete is no longer available (though it still does months). The
simplest workaround is to use a macro to insert the date in the format you want, either triggered by a keyboard shortcut or a button on the QAT eg Sub InsertUSFormatDate() With Selection .InsertDateTime DateTimeFormat:="MM/dd/yyyy", InsertAsField:=False End With End Sub http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org dt46dt46dt46 wrote: hi, i used to have auto date completion in word 2003 - what happened to it? how do i type 8/10 then enter to have the date completed to 8/10/07 for example. thx |
