      From: michael.stemper@gmail.com              I have a spreadsheet in which I track all of my hiking. Today,       I tried to enter the following into a cell:               E pkg lot to top, along bluff to Loop Trail, back down              However, it keeps changing "Loop Trail" to "loop trail". Since       "Loop Trail" is the name of a trail, it is a proper noun, and       should be capitalized.              When I put a period after "bluff to", it allowed me to       capitalize "Loop Trail". However, when I removed the period,       it again took matters into its own (virtual) hands and       undid the capitalization.              Automatic Spell Checking is turned off.       AutoCorrect doesn't seem to have anything relevant.              I can type the same words into the LibreOffice word processor,       and it leaves them alone.              What do I have to do to get it to stop messing with my       perfectly cromulent text?              --       Michael F. Stemper       The name of the story is "A Sound of Thunder".       It was written by Ray Bradbury. You're welcome.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
