SUMMARY
IntelliSense technology senses what you wants to do and intelligently
produces the desired result, making routine tasks automatic and complex
tasks easier.
Examples of IntelliSense in Word 6.0 for Windows include AutoCorrect,
AutoFormat, and AutoSelect.
MORE INFORMATION
AutoCorrect
The innovative AutoCorrect feature automatically replaces errors in
mistyped or misspelled words. For instance, if you accidentally type teh,
it is automatically replaced with "the" as soon as you press the SPACEBAR.
AutoCorrect also automatically capitalizes the first word of a sentence or
the first letter of any day of the week. It also catches common typing
mistakes such as typing two capital letters in a row when starting a
sentence. Users can add thousands of commonly mistyped or misspelled words
to AutoCorrect to suit their personal typing needs.
AutoFormat
With the revolutionary AutoFormat feature in Word 6.0 for Windows, you can
automatically format an entire document with one click on the toolbar.
Undesirable formatting, such as hard carriage returns, asterisks for
bullets, and improper trademark symbols are automatically cleaned up. You
can choose from more than 20 predesigned styles that are provided in the
Style Gallery, or you can create your own styles. This innovative new
AutoFormat feature represents more than two years of design and development
work and the implementation of 400 design rules.
AutoSelect
With AutoSelect, selecting a word or a group of words is easy and fast
because Word understands that a typical user selects complete words rather
than just letters in words. If you start selecting text in the middle of
the word, Word 6.0 for Windows goes back and automatically selects the
beginning of the word.
