How prevent (R) from being converted?
Whenever I type (R) it changes to the 'registered' character, like an R
inside an O. Is there any way to prevent this? I want my document to contain (R) i.e. open paren R close paren. Thanks. -- Dorian "Give someone a fish and they eat for a day; teach someone to fish and they eat for a lifetime". |

You can delete the item in the autocorrect options. In W2007 go to word
options proofing autocorrect options. In W2003 and before, go to Tools autocorrect. Pam Dorian wrote: Whenever I type (R) it changes to the 'registered' character, like an R inside an O.

Pam has given you the answer, but I'd amend it just a little... The
Registered symbol is one that is often desirable but although there are other ways to insert it I'd suggest that you *replace* it's trigger in AutoCorrect rather than removing it altogether. For example, use [r instead of (r). You might want to consider doing something similar for other AutoCorrect items such as (c), etc. -- HTH |:) Bob Jones Office:Mac MVP "Dorian" wrote in message news Whenever I type (R) it changes to the 'registered' character, like an R inside an O.

Alternatively, you can just press Ctrl+Z to reverse the AutoCorrection when
it isn't wanted. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "CyberTaz" gtz1@comcastdotnet wrote in message ...
