Controlling Writer’s AutoCorrect functions

Some people find some or all of the items in Writer's AutoCorrect feature annoying because they change what you type when you don't want it changed. Many people find some of the AutoCorrect functions quite helpful; if you do, then select the relevant checkboxes. But if you find unexplained changes appearing in your document, this is a good place to look to find the cause.

To open the AutoCorrect dialog box, click Tools > AutoCorrect/AutoFormat. (You need to have a document open for this menu item to appear.)

In Writer, this dialog box has five tabs, as shown below.
