Microsoft Word: Set option "Ignore words in UPPERCASE" to false on open

[jeffreybrown]

Must be missing something easy here, but can't see it.

With our template which will be widely used, not everybody has the option "Ignore words in UPPERCASE" unchecked.

We need to have that option unchecked so the users can do some of their own editing.

Anyway, I've used the below which unchecks the option, but doesn't activate the word doc to underline those words in UpperCase which appear misspelled.

Sub UpperCaseFalse()
    Application.Options.IgnoreUppercase = False
End Sub

What other action is required here?

Hi,

It may be possible that someone here will know the answer to the question, but this is primarily an Excel and Access forum. I'm sure there are others, but I found a VBA Word forum here: Word VBA Forum

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the link, but I have an account there already.

The bummer, I'm blocked from that site at work along with many other.

MrE is about the only site I can get to from work, and for that I am very thankful.

Just thought I would get something out there to see if somebody has run across this before.

I know there are some Word guys/gals who visit MrE from time to time.
