Autocorrections won't stay
I have made a docucment and applied certain autocorrections to it. After this
I've saved the document to be able to use it later. When I open it again - say after having had the PC turned off over the night - and call up my document again, ALL my settings in the autocorrection section are gone again and I will have to enter them all over again. It's extremely tedious and tiresome to have to do this every time I'm to use the document. Is there no way of making the corrections stay for good? Thanks in advance for help thomcats |

Autocorrections won't stay
Autocorrect settings are not document or template specific, they are stored
in the registry. It is possible you have a corrupt data key. http://word.mvps.org/faqs/customizat...ngscontent.htm -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome!

Thank you very much for the links, I will study them and what they will do
for my registry and then come back with a report. Best regards thomcats "Charles Kenyon" skrev: Autocorrect settings are not document or template specific, they are stored in the registry.

Autocorrections won't stay
Hello again,
It was easy to follow the instructions in the links provided and for a while everything was fine and dandy, until all of a sudden, all the settings were gone again. However, I've found the "culprit" who changes my settings - and it's a 3rd party program which does it - nothing within in Microsoft or Office at all. I'll add the explanation here to give some other people a tip about it, should they be in the same situation as me. I found out, by pure chance, that the otherwise very good cleaning program "CCleaner" removes personal settings in Office 2003. When visiting the forums for that program, I also found out that this is a known issue and hopefully this bug will be removed in further version. In the meantime, just un-tick Office 2003 from the CCleaner's cleaning-list. Hope this will help others and it just *might* apply to other cleaning program too, so before doing anything else, check on them first.

Yes, we've had reports about CCleaner before. Unfortunate that it's a little
too thorough. -- Suzanne S.
