Turn off auto text suugestion box in Office 2007
Bobbie 12/30/2008 12:59:00 PM
Looking for menu or command to turn off the box that pops up with text
suggestions when using Office 2007. Thank you.

If you are referring to the AutoComplete suggestion (which only works for
dates in Word), you can turn it off by running a little macro. Press Alt+F11
to display the Visual Basic Editor. Press Ctrl+G to activate the Immediate
window. Type

Application.DisplayAutoCompleteTips = False

and press Enter.

If you are referring to the text which appears when you rest the mouse
pointer on a button on a ribbon tab, choose the "Don't show ScreenTips"
option in the "ScreenTip style" box (Office button | Word Options, Popular
category).
