I cannot find the place in Word 2010 where I can customize the autocorrect options and switch off the automatic capitalization option in tables. Interestingly, even the Word help does not tell you. Does someone know? Thanks,

Heike

    For that you'll have to ask in the Excel forum.

    Actually, there are separate settings for "Capitalize first letter of sentences" and "Capitalize first letter of table cells."

    You can turn off Automatic Capitalization in AutoCorrect Options. This turn it on or off for Word, not just in tables.

    See Automated Boilerplate. http://www.addbalance.com/usersguide/autotextautocorrect.htm#ACOptions
