RE: I'm about to give up on "System i"

Yep.. that's it. I do a lot of writing too, and you soon learn a couple
things:

1. Google is your friend when it comes to M$ products (although sifting
through garbage is a little harder)
2. Most of us don't know 99% of the features available in the latest M$
products (even Office 2000, which I still use!) We still treat it like a
typewriter... :)

John,

In Word, add an autocorrect - Replace 'System i' with 'System i'.

Or, after you type System<space>i<space> press <ctrl>Z - which
will perform
an "undo" of the autocapitalizing.


Or, since hardware no longer matters (you know, i5/OS on intel
rumor), stop
using 'System i' and start typing 'i5/OS' more often.

OK, I give up. This is probably an easy problem to fix, but I haven't
solved it yet, and it is related (enough) to System i that David should
permit me to ask it here, but really it is an MS Word problem.



Every time I type "System i" and then put a space after the "i" MS Word
tries to capitalize it. I realize this is because I use MS Word's
autocorrect feature and it assumes that I am typing the pronoun "I", but
it is annoying as hell, and I want to make it stop!



I would settle for getting it to stop capitalizing all lone "I's", but
the perfect solution would be for it to recognize the string "System i"
and LEAVE THE DAMN "i" ALONE!!!



Any help out there?
