Hi there.

I'm a long time reader, but only just signed up because I couldn't find my particular problem anywere else. Just to warn you, it may get a little complicated...

 

When I type the word TYPE:, then use the tab button, then Enter, AutoCAD automatically writes TYPF:, then every time I tab along, it continually puts the letter A: after.

This more annoying than a real problem, as the job I'm working on currently requires me to go through this hassle with over 100 drawings!

 

If anyone knows what this little glitch is, or how to stop it, I will be very grateful

 

Thanks

Just tried it in 2012 and it does the same thing. Have no idea why. Look on the bright side... you aren't crazy after all.

Right-click in editor then go to Bullet and Lists and uncheck Allow Auto-List

 

It is incrementing the last letter

 

Any word you do that with Allow Auto-List
