I can see how that can happen--have seen the forum suggestions that AutoInput should be over-ridable without having to turn it off. But that wouldn't explain why the AutoCorrect setting for capitalizing first word would have been changed, would it? > > Regards > Uwe I'm trying to reproduce the effect and I can't. I thought maybe it had to do with OpenOffice doing a restore on this document when I opened it this morning--it seems to do that sometimes, even if the document that was open when the computer shut down (without separately closing OpenOffice) didn't have any unsaved changes. But when I tried it just now, with some unsaved changes in the spreadsheet, it didn't do a restore on reopening but rather opened two copies of the spreadsheet, one with the unsaved changes and one that appeared to be the last saved version.
(Running Fedore Core 4 and OO2.0.2) So maybe a bigger issue is that OOo doesn't seem to be consistent in how it behaves under various circumstances. Sometimes it wants to do a restore when opening and sometimes not. Sometimes it opens two copies of a file. And shouldn't it be prompting me whether I want to save changes when it's shutting down and there's a file open with unsaved changes? Thanks. Long live OOo.
