Outlook AutoCorrect

Customizing AutoCorrect is done differently in Outlook as compared to Word.  AutoCorrect changes you make should carry over between MS Office programs.

Customizing AutoCorrect

If you type one particular sentence or phrase over and over and want to make your life more pleasant AutoCorrect is one way to do it.  Sure, you can set it up so that it fixes your odd typos (for instance, if you type “fshi” every time instead of “fish”) but you can also make is so that every time you type in “CTLT” it autocorrects to “The Center for Teaching, Learning and Technology.”

Access Database Locking Issues

 Sorry for the vagueness on this one, but I’m not quite sure how the database was set up previous to the Office upgrade.

With older databases that had a hide/unhide feature in order to edit and add records you might have some issues.  One way (and the best I’ve found so far) is to right click on the title bar of the window and click on “Design View” and then switch back to whatever view you were in originally.  You should now be able to edit records and add new ones (the “Add New” button is up in the ribbon on the Home tab).
