1. Lack of AutoCorrect Functionality In Outlook 2007
We have a client who decided to upgrad only the Outlook portion of his Office 2000 suite to Outlook 2007 (thus still using Word 2000). Now, one of most important features, AutoCorrect, plain will not work. If you attempt to change any settings for AutoCorrect (Tools -> Options) all of the settings are greyed out and un-editable. Is this a bug or a feature?

3. Autocorrect functionality still missing in Outlook 2007 & Word 200
I've read previous posts regarding "missing" Autotext functionality in Outlook & Word 2007. I use Autocorrect (not Autotext) because my list of entries is long, in addition to each entry being many paragraphs. It's just a lot easier than Autotext for what I do, but I absolutely need the SAME Autocorrect functionality in both Word and Outlook. In Word 2007, I tried loading my old normal.dot template, and although it did "load" my autocorrect entries did not resurrect. (This process supposedly reloads your Autotext entries into building blocks under Quick Parts, but since I don't use Autotext entries, I can't say...) This is a BIG problem for me. If I have to recreate the Autocorrect entries in Word 2007, I guess I can live with that. But, in Outlook 2007, having to select from a huge drop-down list with Quick Parts in Outlook will be extremely cumbersome for me. Cumbersome enough that I will not upgrade to Office 2007 at all. I don't want to have to maintain 2 complete sets of autocorrect entries -- one that would be for Word 2007 under normal.dotm and my original normal.dot for my older version of Outlook. Then again, if I used Word as my default editor in my older version of Outlook, which version of Word would get loaded? I don't even know if that's feasible...) I guess this difference has something to do with the fact that you can no longer select Word as your default email editor in Outlook? Hey, Developer guys, did we forget to "hook up" Word and Outlook??? 2007 is supposed to be the epitomy of integration, after all. :-) The last posts I could find on this subject were several months old. Someone PLEASE tell me that Microsoft is going to re-integrate Word and Outlook in this very basic (and for me VERY necessary) way! Additionally, how can I import my Autocorrect entries without having to re-enter them? (BTW, I am aware of the old "support.dot" that allows you to export your existing autocorrect entries. However, it is a known bug that each time you have a paragraph break in any single autocorrect entry, the app creates a new record for each paragraph, and the whole file gets messed up. It's easier for me to re-create them than to try and clean up the entire file and attempt to re-import...) Other than that, I love everything else about Office 2007! Thank you! -- J. Raines
