date completion

[jean.redus]

My Word 2007 no longer suggests the complete date when I start typing it. It
only completes the month. Anyone know how to fix this?

Yes and no. No there isn't a "fix" but yes you can still use AutoComplete
for dates. If the date isn't being offered after you complete the month then
press your backspace and then spacebar again and the AutoComplete tip should
display offering to complete the date. It's not the ideal solution but the
only solution other than using a macro to insert the date.
