Default Word 2000 number problem

I use Word 2000 to create documents for work - the problem I am having is
whenever I type a number ending .5 it automatically puts a 0 before the .5
(i.e., 2.5 now becomes 20.5). I looked in my 'undo' list to see what it did
and it says "autocorrect" I've checked in my autocorrect, but I don't have
any numbers entered in there...

Can someone please guide me to the correct area to fix this? I appreciate
it!!

Default Word 2000 number problem

Hi ?B?QmVja2ll?=,

I use Word 2000 to create documents for work - the problem I am having is
whenever I type a number ending .5 it automatically puts a 0 before the .5
(i.e., 2.5 now becomes 20.5). I looked in my 'undo' list to see what it did
and it says "autocorrect" I've checked in my autocorrect, but I don't have
any numbers entered in there...

Actually, in the AutoCorrect list it would sort on the . (dot/point), not on
the number. Did you check everything in the list that precedes the entries
beginning with a letter of the alphabet?
