    I guess the title says it all.  In Word 2007, I can't figure out how to have only the first word of SENTENCES capitalized.  Right now, every LINE starts with a capital letter.  I have to go back and change each line's first letter.  Ptooohee.  This can't be that hard, but it is for me.

    Hi,

    Don't press 'enter' at the end of every line. It's a word processor. Word treats a new paragraph as a new sentence.

    In Word 2007, click the Office button>Word Options>Proofing tab>AutoCorrect Options>AutoCorrect tab and remove the check next to Capitalize first letter of sentences. You can turn that off from autocorrect options.

    Hope it helps.

    Hello Jennifer from 'cros the Pond.  I have spent hours trying to get rid of capitals at the start of every line.....it was driving me "NUTS".  Then I found your tip....it worked.

    Thank you so much,
