Default How do you turn of the autocomplete insertions of dates?

When I write texts I see these flashing texts that are autocompletions of
dates etc.

On common such is when I write the swedish word "den". This could be the
start of a date such as "den 27 november" but that is rather uncommon.
Instead "den" is a very common word in swedish (like "the" in english) so I
see these unecessary flashing texts a lot.

How do I turn oft these? I get irritated by seeing them.

What version of Word are you using? If Word 2003, then choose Tools -
AutoCorrect Options - AutoText tab, and remove the check next to Show
AutoComplete Suggestions.

If this is Word 2007, the answer is a little more complicated:
