Word's AutoCorrect feature can assist you in word processing tasks. AutoCorrect can help you locate misspelled words and correct them as you type. AutoCorrect can also be customized so that commonly used words will be automatically entered without having to type the entire word.
Examples:
When typing the misspelled word "stannd", Word will automatically convert this typo to the correct spelling, "stand".
Instead of having to write a long proper noun, like GCFLearnFree.org, you can customize AutoCorrect to automatically complete the rest of the proper noun once you type the letters GCF.
If you type a misspelled word into AutoCorrect's With: box, AutoCorrect always misspells that word.
If AutoCorrect changes a word you don't want it to change, you can hover the pointer over the area where the auto-correction was made and a smart tag will appear that allows you to reset the original word. Click the smart tag and a drop-down list with options to reverse the action is displayed.
Word XP allows you to search for specific words in your document, as well as fonts, special characters, and formats. The Find and Replace functionality can help save you time and effort in your word processing goals.
For example, consider a document you are editing that displays that Word 2000 needs to be updated to Word XP. Currently, the document has the text "Word 2000" typed again and again throughout the document. Using Find and Replace to replace "Word 2000" with "Word XP" will save you time and effort in your editing process.
