I want this to be a default in my library so i select for future documents. Also, when doing this always makes you choose to do it just for this document or future documents. I found atleast three places where i think i am putting the right controls in place, but nope, not happening. There are several areas where font can be applied, so it is confusing. and so on for list 2 and 3 (difference variance but similarly no control. for example, all fonts and paragraph is defined as calibri 11, black, regular, when i apply level 1, it goes to size 16 blue. No matter what i do, create list styles from scratch and multi-level lists, i define all fonts and still when applying to a document it goes nuts on me. For example, creating a macro mapped to Alt-V to do a Reply There is a huge hidden erector set if you want to take the time to learn to use it. Then, once you learn your way around you can create add additional buttons to make tasks easier, add menus to keep needed files handy, add keyboard Macros, and lot of other stuff. This workaround method is a pain-in-the-butt, so you are much better getting admin privileges so you can make changes when needed, as there is a huge amount of other annoying stuff to fix also.

On my XP system, this is located at: C:Documents and SettingsMY_LOGON-NAMEApplication DataMicrosoftTemplates - but you must replace “MY_LOGON-NAME” above with your unique logon identity, since this will be different for everyone. However, can import a copy of “Normal.dot” from another computer (even from an older copy of Word, in my case) and replace this file from OUTSIDE Word. If you do not have this, you will not be able to make and save changes. You need to request this change in status from your network administrator. If you are changing the program defaults (which change “Normal.dot” and these changes are lost every time you shut down, it is probably because you are on a work computer where you do not have “administrator privileges”. But thankfully once discovered, Word actually allows you to control if and what it attempts to do on your behalf. Smart Tags are also embedded in the document when you save it.Īs you can see, Word has a number of options to automatically do things for you.

For example Word will most commonly mark anything that looks like an address with a SmartTag. The SmartTag may then include additional operations you could perform on an address including perhaps using a program other than Word to look it up. Smart Tags are generated by Word when it thinks it understands the type of data you’re entering.AutoFormat is very much like Autoformat As You Type. Rather than applying formatting as you type, this option controls what formatting is applied when you used the Format menu, AutoFormat command to format your entire document at once.

Once again Word is monitoring what you’ve typed and if it begins to look like any of the items in the Autotext entries it suggests the full item as a typing shortcut.
