Word 2003 (SP2):

Autocplete suggests the month only, not the entire date. "Show Autocomplete
suggestions" is checked. I have checked and unchecked.. no difference,.
ALso ran "Detect and Repoair", but no change. Was working fine before, and
other Autocomplete and AUtotext functions work fine. ONly problem is with
the date.

Torrey,

It is a fickle feature and AFAIK it always has been. Right now if I type
Febr and hit enter it will autocomplete February and that is it. If I type
11 F and hit enter it will autocomplete 11 February 2006. If I type Febr
and keeping typing until the I have typed February and a space and enter it
will autocomplete February 11, 2006.

Next month or next year I may see different results.

Personally, I prefer a date stamp assigned to a keyboard shortcut:

Sub DateStamp()
' Inserts current date
Selection.InsertDateTime DateTimeFormat:="MMMM dd, yyyy",
InsertAsField:=False
End Sub
