Word 2007 Question ~ Showing Months and Dates

[Negin in Grenada]

I used to be able to type in "Dec" and it would then show "December" and even the entire date.
No more.
How can I enable this function again, without having to type up each and every month every. single. time?

Thank you.

No answers here. I just looked at the title and thought, " Wow, I wonder why she would be thinking of her Word of the Year from so many years ago?"

Even after reading it, I still thought it was a "word of the year" question and was trying to figure out how she got the FIAR search engines to pull up old posts about word of the year, just by typing in "Dec."

Thanks for straightening me out Loralin!

You're not going to believe this, but when I came back and saw the title of this thread just now, I thought the exact same thing . I don't think I've ever participated in the Word of the Year thing, so I was like, "Wow! I did this?"
I love having my cheeks hurt from giggling first thing in the morning.

What you are asking about is an autofill, autocorrect, or autocomplete.

My word package has a help button, along the top, where I can put a word, like the above, and it will show me were to find that within word. Might want to give that a shot.

Jennifer, thank you. It seems to work now.
