Question MS Word changes my words when I hit spacebar


When I am typing in Word, "and" is changed to fizzledeewink, "the" is changed to Butterscotch and there are several other words that are changed. Help!

Sounds like someone pranked you. Go to MSO Button, Options, Proofing, and click on the Auto Correct Options Button. It will bring up a box with the autocorrect words towards the bottom. Scroll to the word "and" and "the", it should show these in there with the replacement words of fizzledeewink and butterscotch. Select the row and hit delete. It should take care of your issues.

That is a good prank though. I will have to remember that for the next April Fools Day! Good Luck

Default Thank you!!!

That was it! It's been driving me crazy for a while. There are only four of us in our little non profit office. And they consider ME the IT person. So I'm not sure who put that on there but apparently it was done for April Fools because the other word I had problems with was "Sarah". When I typed it, it would change to April Fools.

Thank you again!!
