Autoformat in Text boxes

[SpentGeezer]

Greetings all,

I have been working with Access for years, and never had this problem: If the user types (R) in a textbox, then the registered trademark symbol appears. Is their a way of turning this autoformat off for all forms in the database? Menu option or VBA code?

That sounds like AutoCorrect at work. It's the same thing that would change "teh" to "the". I think it's in Tools in versions prior to 2007. In 2007, it's

Office Button/Access Options/Proofing

That's it. Cheers!!
