How To Set Name Autocorrect Unchecked by Default

Hey, do you guys know how to set the Name Autocorrect to unchecked by
default. Name Autocorrect is more trouble than its worth. I know I
can go to Tools/General, but, I'd rather have it unchecked by default
when I create a blank database.

Thanks.

Hi.
Hey, do you guys know how to set the Name Autocorrect to unchecked by
default.
One cannot change the default for new databases, but a few simple alternatives
are available. I use a template database with the settings, libraries, form
template and report template I need. I make a copy of the file, then develop
the new database application from this copy.

Another alternative is to set the option via VBA code as soon as the new
database is created. For example code, please see the link to the tip, "How to
set database options using VBA while creating a new database," in the VBA
section of the following Web page:

I am developing a regisration page that will present a set of check boxes to the viewer. This list of checkboxes is developed from a list in a database so the amount and names of the boxes will change. This portion works just fine. The page content has a user name and password along with several sets of these checkboxes. All the form content of this page is presented in one form. The problem:

Just got my copy of Access 2003. Is the 'Name Autocorrect' feature in Access 2003 fixed yet, or is it still 'Name Autocorrupt', as many in this newsgroup reported in the past. I would like to finally clean up poor field names I put in my application in 1994 (when I was young and foolish). For example, I used "Date" as a name in eight different tables. I need to fix this. The "Autocorrect" feature sounds like it is designed to make global...

WatchOut for "Allow AutoCorrect" in your unbound combobox lookups. I am building a personnel database, and the last name of Ballance was causing the following message to popup, prohibiting me from selecting the record: "The text you entered isn't an item in the list" dialog box Went nuts trying to figure out the problem, and then discovered that changing the combobox property "Allow AutoCorrect" as OFF corrected the issue.

I am being stricken with the A2K Name AutoCorrect bug with regards to reports changing margins and orientation. I understand that you can turn this feature off when creating objects, but I am guessing (incorrectly I hope) that this will fix this problem only for my computer. If this is indeed the case, does anyone know if it's possible to turn autocorrect off as soon as a user opens the database (via a vba module or something)? Thanks! ...

Good day all. I am trying to set up MS Access to replace data in a cell using the AutoCorrect feature in Access. However, when I import a text file (.csv), it doesn't replace the cell as I have set up in AutoCorrect. When I manually type or copy one cell and paste, it works, but not when I import a file. My question: How can I (or can I) set up a table to automatically replace the contents of a cell with what I have in AutoCorrect...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
