It's not this site, it's your computer or whatever device you're using. It can be turned off by going into settings on your device.

I always thought GNP stood for Gross National Product - Must be something else gross, eh? Edie

It must be your setting. When I bought my flip phone, I had to turn of that option because it was trying to anticipate what I was going to type. I spell check everything before I post it to make sure I didn't make a typo.

i am using an iPad will check settings and see if I can change it there. Sorry if it is my iPad and not the site. It only happens here though to be honest don't use any other forums or sites like similar to this.

Thank you you to all who replied.

The most hated and loved feature for administrative assistants. I worked with a guy who's last name was Taht. Spell check changed it to "that". We ladies were always double checking behind each other because he would go into a absolute snit if he found his name spelled wrong.

Switched off auto correct and not having the problem. Not being a computer person, can use but don't understand background, I hadn't realised it was my iPad. I've updated the system as well so the combo of the 2 doing great work.
thank you everyone who explained the set up and what I need to do.
