Automatic # at end of sentence
An automatic pound-sign??
Do you mean an "automatic space," whatever that would be? Don't you touch the space bar after every word you type anyway? I suppose you could make an AutoCorrect entry such that every time you type a period, it inserts period+space instead. But how would you train yourself _not_ to space after the last wod in every sentence? On Jun 20, 4:29*pm, Mary wrote: Can you create an automatic # at the end of a sentence? *If so, how? |

Automatic # at end of sentence
I'm guessing Mary wants a number at the end of the sentence. But whether she
wants the sentences numbered or wants the number to be the number of words in the sentence or what, we may never know. -- Suzanne S.

Automatic # at end of sentence
I'm not sure whether even formatted AutoCorrect entries can contain fields,
but AutoText entries certainly can. But I would guess Mary wants something like the automatic paragraph numbers that you can add via Bullets and Numbering. This is akin to the users who want page numbers before TOC entries--something Word is just not set up to do. -- Suzanne S.

For what it's worth, you can actually include fields in a formatted
AutoCorrect entry. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: I'm not sure whether even formatted AutoCorrect entries can contain fields, but AutoText entries certainly can.
