Open the Tools AutoCorrect Options dialog, where the entry will appear in the With box with an asterisk in place of the nonbreaking hyphen. Click the Formatted option button just above that. Type "e-mail" with an ordinary hyphen in the Replace box and click Add. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |

How do I insert a nonbreaking hyphen into an AutoCorrect entry
Thanks Jay. That did the trick! On my computer. But when the person
sitting next to me tried it, she did not get the asterisk in place of the nonbreaking hyphen when Plain text is selected in the dialog box. Is there a setting or something that might be different on my computer than hers?
