Automatic Date Insertion

[Guest]

Hello Guys and Girls,

Could you tell me how to fix this please?

Open up a new document in Word

Start typing the sate in full i.e. 25th August 2005

As soon as I get to the "5" of "2005" a yellow box appears asking me to
press "Enter" to insert, if I press enter it adds an extra date on the end of
the text i just typed.

How do I turn off this function but leave all other auto-texts and
auto-formats as they are - is there a way?

You can't. The usual workaround is to type a space after the
year and then press Enter.
