Sounds as if your autocorrect list has been tampered with. Look in Tools,
"AutoCorrect Options" and see what combinations are in there. Remove the
offending ones.

Hi David,

Check your autocorrect options: Tools = Autocorrect options.

There may be an option in there that has been set to correct double letters
/ Os to single letters / Os.

Hopefully this should stop people making fun of you for not being able to
spell. Very unusal...
