Suppress capitalization of first word when <entering>

[5tulips]

I'm building a multi-page reference document where I have to list passwords
and other words which must be case-sensitive.

Is there a shortcut to prevent capitalization of the first word when I
<enter> to the next line?

In case of Word 2003:
You can turn off Tools > AutoCorrect Options > AutoCorrect tab > Capitalize
first letter of sentences.

In Word 2007, you will find the AutoCorrect functionality here:
Office button > Word Options > Proofing > AutoCorrect Options button (top of
the dialog box). Click the AutoCorrect tab and you will se the dialog box
known from previous versions of Word.

Thank you. I guess I looked at everything but that. I'm back to work.

Except - now, when I type several words, the space between each word acts
like a tab (words are far apart and act like they are right aligned)
And I had forgotten to say I'm using Office 2000.

Go to autocorrect options and clear the checkboxes for _capitalize the first
letter of sentences_ and _capitalize the first letter of table cells_ and in
autoformat as you type, clear the box for _Format the beginning of list item
like the one before it_. It's a good idea to look at all of the autocorrect
options and enable or disable the ones that suit your needs.

Fixed it. Somehow, it also turned on full justify.
