Sue, The autocorrect feature in word is intended for correcting common mistakes when you're typing. For example, I type very quickly. And sometimes, I often make the mistake of typing "teh" in stead of "the." My autocorrect entry in Word is good enough to realize that I made a mistake and change the word automatically. It does not have a feature to apply these types of corrections after the document has been typed or a document that you may be editting. i hope this sort of answers your question.

Or self-correct, whichever it is. Will that do any good on the hyphenated words?

You only would need to apply automatic corrections if you have a document that you're certain has not gone through the process.

First you need to ensure that the automatic end of line hyphen correction is enabled in settings/general. Then once enabled, save in all your settings files. Now go to tools/apply corrections and press enter. Automatic corrections will be applied to the entire document, including end of line repair for words split by end-of-line soft-hyphens. After this operation you will discover that there are very few words split at end of line. You will still need to look for hypen followed by space, because the repair mechanism is not yet 100% perfect. Guido Guido Dante Corona IBM Accessibility Center, Austin Tx.

Is there some way to put the word together on one line with hyphen? I want a command within k1000 so I do not have to go through the book and do each one by hand. E.
