Gary- there are two places in DNS Pro where this behavior is 'controlled';
the Vocabulary Editor and the Auto-Formatting menu of the Tools menu.  I can
send you more specific info about how to make these changes if needed, so
just let me know....ed.

When I write, I certainly want abbreviations for common things such as Mr.
and Mrs., but when I write president, I do not want an abbreviation.  When I
write my address which is on Tropical Lane, I want the word spelled out
rather than the sometimes used LN. the other day I use the word treasurer
and got Treas. is there any way to be selective about which of these is
employed?
