Auto Type in Excel - like in Word

[denice]

Greetings
In Word when you type something incorrectly such as "hte" instead of "the" it automatically corrects things like that. Is there a preference to do that in Excel? I use a form to enter my data.

Thanks

Hi Denice,

Are you referring to the "Auto Correct" function? If it is, then it is available in Excel. In fact, it is available in all Office applications.

regards,

And where would I find that preference?

By default Auto Correct should be turned on in Excel it is loacted under Tools/Auto Correct.

Hi Denice,

The AutoCorrect can be found as mentioned by Wray.

Click on the link for an abstract on the autocorrect. If your form is a customised application, it will give you some ideas.
