I started this thread because I had no way to delete bad entries in the Calc The same would apply for the common general functions like print, sort,

Generalized code libraries of these functions could solve the issue.Īnd no, I have not looked at the source code to see the overall design.īut as a user, it seems like each module has been created and coded independently with no common ground. If I can delete a bad complete entry in Writer, I should be able to do it in Calc too.

Type as many entries as you would like and press Enter on your keyboard after each one (your name, company, church name, etc)Īuto-Correct takes the automation a step further. Click the Auto Complete tab (Auto Text in Word XP)ĥ. You can add to the library of Auto-Complete phrases by following these steps in Word 2003 and all prior versions:Ĥ.

Microsoft Word tries to guess what you are going to type next and flashes suggestions to you. These little yellow boxes are part of Word’s Auto-Complete and Auto Format functions. Likewise, if you start a letter with ‘To whom’, the box flashes at you with ‘To whom it may concern’. If you use Microsoft Word, you may notice that at the end of a letter, if you start typing ‘Sin’, a little yellow box flashes up with ‘Sincerely’ in it.
