: Hello
: I sent this problem to Microsoft and they answered somehow
: like this: This looks like a bug in Word2000.However, this
: issue is solved in WD2003.
: The workaround is to Press SHIFT+F3 to change the case of
: the character to a capital letter."
: So we'll just have to update to 2003 (if w want to use
: Capitalize automatically in finnish)
: Thanks again
