[Solved] to → Joe

Post by dbutler »

An interesting thing happens when I am writing in the OpenOffice word processor. In the text whenever I type in the word "to" it automatically replaces it with the word "Joe." Most annoying. Any help to fix this problem would be appreciated.

Check the settings in /Tools /Autocorrect options : Replace tab and remove the substitution for "to"
