    Is there some word that you have to type frequently that you just can't seem to do on the first try? For me, it seems to be microsost... microsfot... that company in Redmond. Good thing I don't have to type it often. :sigh: :sigh: :doh:

    'an' I frequently end up typing 'and' I just cannot seem to keep the d off the word and I end up sending very strangely worded emails because of it. 'Give the boy and orange' And then I hit Ctrl-Enter and the email is on its way.

          when I type SQL statements from is always typed form the first go around.

          I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

              Lots of them. Many are ver common words such as "hte". There are other words that I simply cannot spel, so all these go into my autocorrect lists.

                  One of our clients in the city of Schenectady NY. Took me a year to be able to type that without typos, and I still have to type it slowly. Doesn't help that all the letters except the h and n are typed with the left hand.

                            Most are in SQL: SELECT => SEELECT, SELLECT FROM => FORM WHERE => WERE, WEHRE DELETE => DELLETE, DELETTE Maybe it is because I hate SQL, but have to use it every day. Too bad SQL Server Management Studio doesn't have auto correct.

                                  Gerp! Many years ago a colleague and I wrote a shell around grep that took the output and fed it to a macro in brief which set up all the matches as search points, and we called it gerp - so you would gerp a file and brief would pop up and you could then next/prev to all the matches.

                                        "The" - but that's a feature, it's in my bio. Also anything ending in "ing" tends to be typed wrong.

                                        but in your response you got both "anything" and "ending" correct. Kudos!
