Never worry about Typing Fast again!

I don’t like typing, so I love features that help me do my typing faster. AutoCorrect is a great way to type any word or phrase quickly.

Add an abbreviation to AutoCorrect and when you type that abbreviation it is replaced with the full word or phrase.  Who needs 50 wpm (words per minute) when you have AutoCorrect.

Use AutoCorrect in Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel.
