RE: word
Hi Lucy
Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.
AutoCorrect is used to correct typing mistakes you make commonly. It can also be used to insert symbols. AutoCorrect is set up with a list of typical typos by default, but you can add your own to it.
In Word for example, you can create your own AutoCorrect entries by going to the Office button and clicking Word Options.
Select Proofing from the list on the left, then click the AutoCorrect Options button near the top of the screen.
On the AutoCorrect tab, enter in a word how you would mispell it under Replace, and type it in correctly under With. Then click Add, and OK.
Kind regards
Amanda
