Autocorrect

[Lorenz Ingold]

In MSAccess 2002 or 2003, under Tools -> Autocorrect Options ->Replace text
as you type (=Checkbox), I have a big list of misspelled words to replace,
e.g. "wil" -> "will". It seems that this setting is individuell to each
Program (Word, Excel, Access...) of the office package. How can I set this
option if there is only Access 2003 runtime installed? There I don't have
all the menu items (e.g. Tools). I didn't find a registry key which would
allow to do it manually (that is, directly in registry).

Autocorrect options are common across all Office apps - and are held in .acl
files (MSOnnnn.acl where nnnn is a language identifier). If you set an
autocorrect entry in Word, it should be available in Access. I don't know
what effect having only the Access runtime installed will have.
