 |
|
Hi, everyone
I have a habit of typing two spaces between words. I accessed the AutoCorrect setup feature and when it asked "Replace," I hit the space bar twice. When it asked "With," I hit the spacebar once. What looked like a blank entry appeared in the list, but when I tested it, it didn't correct the two spaces. I have AutoFormat while typing checked. Did I miss another switch I need to set? Using OO 3.0.1.
Regards,
Jainagirl |

There is an "ignore double spaces" option in Tools - Autocorrect, but at least for me, it does not seem to work.

For your information: the Replace ... With list only works for entire words, not for things like you try to do now.
If your problem has been solved, please edit the first post of this thread (Edit button) and add [Solved] to the start of the subject line.
