Can anyone help me find the autocorrect feature in Word 2010? I would like to disable the 'automatic bulleted lists' because any symbol I type, such as a dash or a star plus a space, immediately turns into a bullet. I have found a way around it but that is very tedious. I have searched the 'help' feature without success. Thanks, Tina | | | Natalie Poland Local time: 09:02 Member (2002) English to Russian + ...

You may find it here: File - Options - Spellchecking - Autocorrect options in the upper part of the window HTH, Natalia | | | Tina Vonhof (X) Canada Local time: 02:02 Dutch to English + ... TOPIC STARTER
That is one place where I didn't look - thanks a million! | | | Lyussie (X) Bulgaria English to Bulgarian
also whatever you type and it automatically turns into something you did not mean or you do not like, you can always use the 'ctrl + z' shortcut to bring you one step back | |

Thank you Lyussie. A good option to remember but also a bit tedious if you have a document full of them. | | | where is autocorrect in Word 2010? | Jan 18, 2012 |
Go to 'File', 'Options', then 'Proofing' for spelling and grammar. For punctuation, select 'AutoCorrect Options'. You may need to select 'Math AutoCorrect' for the following: If you post to blogs or RSS feeds, the curly-quotes will cause problems, except in cases where the recipient servers have been programmed to interpret them properly. Expect nonsense symbols like the following, or sometimes just little question marks. †• ... See more Go to 'File', 'Options', then 'Proofing' for spelling and grammar.

Other embedded symbols [fraction, bullets] may cause problems as well. And finally, when copying and pasting text from a word processor via the clipboard, hard returns are left in place in all Windows apps. Thus you may get this: "When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation." Look for, and download ClipCase 2.3.3 to remove those 'hard returns' that Windows insists on keeping. The clipboard could well keep double returns, as they amount to paragraph designations. But single returns? The receiving software will put them in where needed. Are you listening Microsoft? ▲ Collapse | | | Tina Vonhof (X) Canada Local time: 02:02 Dutch to English + ... TOPIC STARTER
