Well, it is always helpful to mention the version of Word you're using,
especially when it is Word 2007, which has such a drastically different UI. In Word 2007, the path is Office Button | Word Options | Proofing | AutoCorrect Options... -- Suzanne S.

Or immediately press Ctrl-Z to undo the automatic capitalization. Note
that when it does the automatic capitalization, it shows a heavy underline under it for a moment (or if you go back to it) -- click on that and you'll have the option of turning off automatic capitalization entirely.

How do I get ride of the capital C when typing cc: in a letter
Sorry, still having problems with this. As soon as I type the : after a cc
(even though I've added it to the exception list, it still capitalizes the first c. At my former employer, the IT department had a fix for it but I can't remember what it was. We had Word 2003 so maybe there is not a fix in 2007?? "grammatim" wrote: Or immediately press Ctrl-Z to undo the automatic capitalization.

How do I get ride of the capital C when typing cc: in a letter
I find it quite bizarre that the same exception works correctly in Word 2003
and has no effect in Word 2007 (despite the fact that they're both working off the same dialog/settings/AutoCorrect file), but I can confirm that this is the case: in Word 2003, with "cc" in the "Other Corrections," "cc:" does not become "Cc:" and in Word 2007 (with the same settings), it does. But I think I know someone I can ask about this. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "April" wrote in message ...

What works here in 2007 is to add Cc: in the regular AutoCorrect list to be
replaced with cc: HTH |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac On 6/14/09 1:31 PM, in article , "Suzanne S.

Odd, because that *didn't* work in Word 2003.

How do I get ride of the capital C when typing cc: in a letter
The problem is that it doesn't hold the correction. As soon as you exit out
of Word, it goes back to capitalizing the first C in cc: even though it is still in the Auto Correct List. Any ideas?

Indeed, most of us don't want to have to disable "Capitalize first letter of
sentences" just to avoid having "cc:" become "Cc:". -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "Character" wrote in message ... Suzanne S.

I have just about ALL auto corrections and auto formatting disabled; they're far too annoying and arrogant.I make exceptions for smart quotes and automatic hyperlinks, because they're convenient and are almost always what I want. if i want to write a sentence this way for some reason, I don't want anything to automatically change what *I* write.
