The Word Options are still open. Proofing is selected.
Click on
AutoCorrect Options at the top of the Proofing page. A new window with several pages (tabs) of options will open. Click on AutoCorrect.

At the top of the AutoCorrect page is a list of Capitalization options. Microsoft Word capitalizes:

First letter of sentences

First letter in a table cell

Names of days

 

Replace text as you type:

Earlier in this lesson we played with a few symbols and emoticons. This is the page that lets you add and change the AutoCorrect words. For example, if you type ;) it will be replaced with a smiley face.


You can add a phrase to AutoCorrect and have Microsoft Office spell it out for you automatically. The buttons are pretty obvious: you can ADD or REMOVE any text in this list.
