Correcting Text Automatically

Word provides an exceptionally useful feature called AutoCorrect that you can use to correct common misspellings of certain words. You can also customize the AutoCorrect feature to include your own common repetitive typing errors and misspellings, and you can make AutoCorrect work even harder for you by defining special AutoCorrect entries.

Add Entries

  1. Choose Word Options from the Office menu, select the Proofing category, and click the AutoCorrect Options button.

  2. On the AutoCorrect tab of the AutoCorrect dialog box, with the Replace Text As You Type check box selected, enter the abbreviated or misspelled text that you often type.

  3. Type the text that you want to replace the incorrect or abbreviated text you typed.

  4. Click Add.

  5. Add any other entries you want. When you’ve finished, click OK, and then click OK again to close the Word Options dialog box.

  6. In your Word document, type the text you entered in the Replace box, type a space, and make sure your corrected entry has been inserted.
