SYMPTOMS
When you try to use voice commands to select or to clear dialog box items on the AutoFormat As You Type tab of the AutoCorrect dialog box, nothing happens.

WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, follow these steps:
 * 1) With the AutoCorrect dialog box open, say &quot;autoformat as you type.&quot;

Notice that the AutoFormat As You Type page is displayed.
 * 1) Repeatedly say &quot;down&quot; or &quot;up&quot; until the item that you want is selected.
 * 2) Say &quot;spacebar&quot; to select or to clear the selection of the item.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
