It must be there (I hope) but I cannot find Capitalize first letter in
sentences - I want to stop it.

Can you help?

Thanks Diane - I feel such a fool having missed that - partly age and partly
excitement at finding my way round this wonderful iMac with Leopard after
too long out in the cold on XP and only occasionally using G4.

Hi Diane,
My problem was that the capitalize first letter worked great for me, but it also capitalized the first letter in most (funny not all) lines, not just sentences. If I leave it on, then the first word on most lines converts to a capital. I'm new to entourage, so perhaps there's another place to address this one allowing me to leave the capitalize first letter?

Your original message is no longer on the server so anyone trying to follow
this thread is left out in the cold. I posted original below.

Can you explain this:

FWIW, the newsgroup servers dump messages after so many months. Your
original message was 2/23/08.

Entourage will consider a new line to be a new sentence IF you ended the
previous line with a hard carriage return. If you let Entourage
automatically wrap text at the end of a line, then it will not consider the
new line to begin a new sentence.
