Typing bug
12-15-2016 11:56 AM

When I try to type "100nT", or one hundred nano-Tesla, into Microsoft word on my HP Spectre X360, when I press the space bar, it changes to "100Nt" and my caps lock key magically turns on. (I have a video.)
PS Why don't you have a simple HP bug reporting tool?

Hi,
That is not a typing bug. If you have to type nT hundreds times a day, please turn off auto correct or auto capitalization in Word, otherwise overtype it and this will cost you 5 seconds or you can global change the whole document at the end.
Regards.

Hi,
Auto correct and/or auto capitalization in Word will do that. As mentioned above, you can turn this off or build a dictionary/list for yourself.
Please read Word manuals.
Regards.

Hi,
Please Open Notepad and type 100nT. What you see ? Now my question: How long have you been using Microsoft Wird ?
Regards.

I suppose I've been using Word for over fifteen years.
If people aren't even going to bother to read the statement, please don't reply.

Hi,
That why I said this is Word auto correct thing. You have been using Word for many year you know how to tell Word about this.
