"Autoformat" v. "Autoformat as you type" -- what's the difference?
AutoFormat does nothing until you manually start it. You can add a button
for that to the Quick Access Toolbar (find the AutoFormatNow command in the Commands Not In the Ribbon category in the Customize dialog). I see it assigned to the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+K, but I'm not sure whether that's a default assignment or one that I made. AutoFormat As You Type is exactly that -- the changes occur as soon as Word recognizes something you typed as being of the right kind. And I agree, the Word 2007 help is more poorly organized, or at least more poorly indexed, than in previous versions. That has been a trend through the last few releases. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. wrote: They have different options but many are the same. How do they behave differently? Man, the Office 2007 help files really suck. |
