John: Ditch MS Word, and start using OpenOffice. Unlike MS Word, OO
doesn't think it knows better than you, and leaves the lower case i
alone. (If you absolutely have to save the file in MS DOC format, OO
handles that just fine.)

Cheers! Hans

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

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?
