OFFICE 2007 Word
When typing the name of a month, Word does NOT complete it for me after the
first 4 letters. This worked OK in Office 2003. the Help function says it cannot be turned off, so..... can I turn it on ? |

I don't know what to tell you as it works fine here - days as well as
months. Are you saying that the AutoComplete ScreenTip doesn't display once the 4 characters are typed or that the name doesn't complete when you press enter (or both)?

Date AutoComplete can be turned off using a macro (see
http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com/2...in-word-2007/). This suggests that a corrupted Options or Data key in the registry can effectively make Word think that it's turned off. My suggestion would be to start Word using the /a switch (Start - winword.exe /a) and see if date AutoComplete now works. If so, then try renaming the Data and/or Options keys in the registry, to see if a corrupted registry key is the problem (that's where settings are stored, and a corrupted key can confuse Word, as well as prevent Word from storing setting changes the user makes). The Data and Options keys both can be found here in the registry in Word 2007: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\W ord -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "CyberTaz" wrote in message .. .
