You can immediately undo any automatic changes with Ctrl+Z. The following shows you how to deactivate and reactivate the automatic changes in OpenOffice.org Calc: Automatic text or number completion When making an entry in a cell, OpenOffice.org Calc automatically suggests matching input found in the same column. This function is known as *AutoInput*. 1. To turn the AutoInput on and off, set or remove the check mark in front of *Tools - Cell Contents - AutoInput* . Automatic conversion to date format OpenOffice.org Calc automatically converts certain entries to dates. For example, the entry *1.1* may be interpreted as January 1 of the current year, according to the locale settings of your operating system, and then displayed according to the date format applied to the cell. To ensure that an entry is interpreted as text, add an apostrophe at the beginning of the entry. The apostrophe is not displayed in the cell. Quotation marks replaced by custom quotes Choose *Tools - AutoCorrect Options*. Go to the *Custom Quotes* tab and unmark *Replace*. Cell content always begins with uppercase Choose *Tools - AutoCorrect* *Options*. Go to the *Options* tab. Unmark *Capitalize first letter of every sentence*. Replace word with another word Choose *Tools - AutoCorrect* *Options*. Go to the *Replace* tab. Select the word pair and click *Delete*. -- Q: What do agnostic, insomniac dyslexics do at night?
