Answer: B
Correct answer: AutoCorrect
AutoCorrect replaces text as you type according to a list of entries - changing teh to the, capitalising the first letter of a sentence, and correcting two initial capitals. Its list is editable, and that is what makes it more than a spelling aid: an entry can be added to expand an abbreviation into a long phrase, so typing a short code produces a full address or a standard clause. The distractors are separate features. AutoFormat applies formatting automatically - turning a typed hyphen list into a bulleted list, or converting straight quotes into curly ones. AutoText, now part of Quick Parts, stores reusable blocks of content to be inserted on demand. AutoSave preserves the document at intervals so that work is not lost. AutoCorrect should not be confused with the spelling checker, which flags errors with a wavy underline and waits for the user to act rather than changing anything itself.
