Auto Text Stopped Working
On my home computer and both my two office PC's the Auto Text feature stopped
working anod no longer helps out with dates or salutations. I have office pro 2003 on all three machines and windows xp. This is puzzling? The "show auto complete suggestions" box is clicked on but nothing works. Strangely enough this happend about the first of the year but I don't know if this is an actual program glitch or something else. By the way... the school where my wife works is having the same issue with their PC's. Help anyone? |

Auto Text Stopped Working
John,
Thanks for the reply! All of the Auto Text entries are there on all three PC's. The normal salutations such as To Whom It May Concern and so on. That's actually the first thing I checked. Also the "complete suggestions" box is checked so it shoud be working. I even unchecked the box exited out of WORD then went back and rechecked the box but it did not resolve the problem.

Go to InsertAutoTextAutoText... and tell me what items you see in that list...
