AutoCorrect - Capitalization
I have a user who would like to have any character that follows ending
punctuation ALWAYS capped regardless of the number of spaces following the ending punctuation. Typical scenario: Sentence.(two spaces) Next sentence. Users Scenario: Sentence.(one space) next sentence. Is there any way to modify what designates a sentence in Word (ie: period, followed by two spaces) |

AutoCorrect - Capitalization
Under Insert, Autotext, AutoCorrect, check the box Capitalize first letter of
Sentences. This disregards how many spaces there are. On a side line, you can have Word checking how many space you have between sentences. Tools, Options, Spelling & Grammar tab, Settings button, Spaces required between sentences, choose "1" or "2" or "don't check". This will not autocorrect but will highlight the error spaces as grammar errors (green squiggles). Hope this helps DeanH "ktbull" wrote: I have a user who would like to have any character that follows ending punctuation ALWAYS capped regardless of the number of spaces following the ending punctuation.

AutoCorrect - Capitalization
The use of two spaces after a sentence is a throwback to days of the
typewriter and monospaced fonts. It is not required with a wordprocessor and proportional fonts. Word automatically capitalizes after a single space. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org ktbull wrote: I have a user who would like to have any character that follows ending punctuation ALWAYS capped regardless of the number of spaces following the ending punctuation.

Settings in Outlook have to be set in Outlook as well (I believe), Tools,
Options, Spelling, Autocorrect, Capitalize first letter of sentences.
