You can always turn it on when you really need it.

Tools|Options|Edit tab
is where you'd toggle it.

Many thanks for the solution to the 'eye' problem.
Now how do you handle the auto entry problem?
If I type "washing" first and later want only "wash" I must be aware
that auto enter is lurking and I will not get the word I want.
