Practice Tip: <B>How AutoCorrect Can Help in Document Creation</b>
Last month we introduced you to AutoCorrect, a Microsoft Word feature that allows you to automatically detect and correct typos, capitalization errors and general misspellings as you type. We explained the differences between plain text and formatted text and how each is treated within AutoCorrect and also provided steps on how to add and remove AutoCorrect entries.
AutoCorrect was designed to enhance Word's ability to create stable and consistent documents.

This month's column provides additional tips on how to best use AutoCorrect to your advantage.
