Auto text date.
When I begin typing the name of the month, I should be able to enter the date
by pressing enter. This feature has stopped working, How may I correct this error? |

Auto text date.
Word 2003: Click Insert | AutoText | AutoText. Check the "Show AutoComplete
suggestions" box. Word 2007: Press Alt+F11 to display the Visual Basic Editor. Activate the Immediate window by pressing Ctrl+G. Type Application.DisplayAutoCompleteTips = True and press Enter. Note that the feature may still not work correctly, even if it has been properly activated. According to MVP Beth Melton: ******************* AutoComplete for dates has been a bit flakey for several versions. What I have found is once you complete the month, press the Spacebar, Backspace, then press the Spacebar again and you should see the suggestion to complete the current date. ******************* -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "RHellams" wrote in message ...
