Hi,

in my forms whenever i type three dots (...) they get replaced by some sort
of block. When i look in the table, the three dots are there, but in the
form they get replaced by a block. Anyone got an idea what's causing this?

Regards,

Thomas L.
 
AutoCorrect is replacing the 3 dot characters with an ellipsis character.
The character does not display correctly with some fonts.

To avoid the problem, open your form in design view. Right-click the box
that has this problem, and choose Properties. On the Other tab of the
Properties box, set the Allow Autocorrect property to No.

Allow Autocorrect should be turned off for most controls on every form.

You could also remove the entry from the AutoCorrect list through the menus
(Tools | AutoCorrect options), but this affects all programs in the Office
suite.
