How can I auto format the fraction 1/8 like Word format automatic.

[Guest]

I have MS word 2003 set up that it automatically formats fractions such as
1/4 and 1/2. However, when I type in 1/8, the auto format does not work.
How can I make the 1/8 look like the other fractions, ie. 1/4 and 1/2?

Thanks in advance

Judi,

I've wondered that myself, but I suspect you'll have to find the answer over
at the Word Newsgroup. This one is for the database program, Access.

Unfortunately, 1/4 and 1/2 are single characters defined in the font you are
using. The other fractions aren't so they can't be converted unless you
happen to find a font in which they exist.
