I got it. Replace ubr with uBR in the auto correct list.

Unchecking "Correct Accidental use of Caps Lock" setting does stop the
situation, but there seems to be no exception setting that will work.

Mike,
In Office 2K it seems to be controlled by the "Correct Accidental use of
Caps Lock" setting.
Although the Exceptions route may be better.

It is autocorrect, but it is the option to Capitalize the first letter
of
a
sentence. If I uncheck that in Tools=Autocorrect, it doesn't do
that.
(at
least for me in xl97).

Hi Mike,

In my job there is a piece of equipment called a uBR

Maybe, a colleague has added this to as an autocorrect setting?

Excel is not the only app that does this and I have tried it on
WinXP
home
and pro with similar results. Maybe someone here has the answer.
Turn
on
Caps Lock and type uBR(space) using the Shift key to produce the
lower
case
u. As soon as you hit the Space Bar the text reverses case to Ubr.
Any
takers on this? In my job there is a piece of equipment called a
uBR
and
I
was trying to type an all caps header in Excel 2000 that said uBR
PORTS.
After several attempts and a re-boot, I watched the text carefully
after
each keystroke and that is what I found.
