IT Queries: Computer problems answered

Microsoft word puts a capital letter at the beginning of each line, how do I stop this?

First, don’t start new lines by pressing the “enter” key. That key has a slightly different function to the “return” key on a typewriter and Word, along with most other modern computer programs, will deal with the end of a line automatically.

Sometimes though, Word does get a bit confused and wants to put the capital letter in the wrong place. To fix this you’ll need to change the auto correct options.

In Word 2003, open Word and click Tools on the top toolbar. In Word 2007 click the Word button and go down to Word Options and proofing.

In the tools screen, select AutoCorrect options and click the Autocorrect tab. Then take the tick off Capitalize first letter of sentences.

Click okay and this will fix the problem.
