As Ph.D pointed out, that's true of older Word, like my (quirky) Word 2000. I encountered this same problem with I vs. i, and changed the auto-correct stuff. Now if I _want_ to type "I", it changes it to "i". AAAArgh. One obvious yet cumbersome way round is simply to let it capitalize (or not) i, then after you've typed on a ways, move the cursor back and correct it. Keeps one on one's toes, proof-reading-wise, at least ;-)))
