Outlook 2003 SP3 auto correct not working

[David]

Yippeee!!! It's working again! Didn't see an update for it, but it is now working again. I logged onto the computer over RDC during the holidays and the pc I logged in with doesn't have the Service Pack so I don't know if that affected things. Anyway, it's working now. Is anybody else's working again

Guess what, Unix still ain't dead!!!

It was RDC that it! It's still not fixed. The RDC replaced my Quick Launch icon with one that points at the computer I was logged into (one that hasn't had the Service Pack applied). I only found this out when I started Outlook from a different icon. Good old Roaming Profiles have struck again! Sorry about that people!!!

I was able to download the hotfix but I must admit I became a little
intimidated during the installation process and quit. It looks like you have
to select which folder to install in, which probably isn't too hard to figure
out, but it also looks like the user is supposed to modify the registry,
which I have done before, ....but, I think I'll wait for SP3.

Please let us know how you made out with the hotfix.

Hello all,

I have received the Hotfix KB945430 from Microsoft. It worked fine.
Can someone tell me, if I can distribute this hotfix with the WSUS.

Thanks for your help

Hello Rick,

in the article from (e-mail address removed) is a link to the ms article
KB945430. In this article there is a link where you can request the hotfix
from MS.
From MS You get the link where you download the hotfix. After you can
install the hotfix.

Thank you for your quick response to my question. I actually did download the
hotfix but got cold feet partway through the installation. The installation
process was not clear to me. Is there a step by step guide as to how to
install it?

I'm usually very savvy on the computer, but I also sense where not to go
sometimes.

Thank you,

Rick

Hey Rick,

I have make only a doubleklick on the File "outlook.msp" (the hotfix from MS).
This works.

The hotfix worked like a charm and was simple to install. Did I mention all
of my nagging problems related to AutoCorrect are resolved now. I'm really a
happy camper.

most recent MS update to office fixes this problem. autocorrect now works in outlook when not using word as editor. :d
