I think the autocomplete is shared across Office apps so you may need to go
into Excel or Word to turn it off.

Subject: [mso] How to turn off auto-complete in Access?

I am using Access 2003, and in this particular case I am entering data
directly into the tables, tabbing across the fields.
 
There is an irritating "feature" I would like to disable. If I enter 1 in a
field, tab to the next and enter 2, tabbing to the following fields
increments  by 1 each time, so it is attempting to second-guess me
(incorrectly.)
 
I searched, but couldn't find any way to turn this off (or, indeed, any
reference to it at all in the "Help."
 
Thanks
 
Peter
