AutoCorrect does not use the wildcard rules which are for the Find and Replace function, not part of Autocorrect. As stated previously, you will need a separate rule for each digit.
A separate rule for each digit? Don't you mean a separate rule for each and every temperature? A rule for 0 C won't help if I type 10 C or 100 C. I'd need about 1700 entries to cover all bases and that's ignoring decimals like 36.6 C! It's not very practical without wildcards Thanks for responding anyway.
