Solved THANKS !**** **** Outlook 2003 annoyance [annoyance]

Q: Hi
apparently I must once typed a letter or something to this man, lets call him William Dude. Now every time I type will Outlook gives me the possibility of introducing this guy name by pressing Enter in order to put it. Is there a way get rid of that? will is a common word, and I do not want to see every little popup.

Thanks


Re:THANKS GUYS!

It was in Word. Here:

Go to Insert> Autotext> Autotext and there's the list of things it will insert if you press ENTER while typing something… I just highlighted and deleted that one.

I hardly use word anymore (since I left school years ago), so never delved into (or forgot) all the settings.


Re:You probably have auto-fill on or something. The only thing I can think of is try searching through the options of Word instead.

Click 'OK'

It's in the BODY of the message.

WTF? it's auto-suggestion words for the BODY of the message?

I've only seen this in Pocket PCs (windows mobile) or perhaps tablet PCs… but never heard of it on a desktop…

Maybe it's an auto-correct option in Word… just a wild stab- try Tools/Options/Spelling tab.
