    I do not know if it worked? Could be goofed up. Ah, it corrected! Thanks for the tip!

  2. Didn’t work, no matter what I did, until it dawned on me that I was using my PC, not my CBook!😳

    On my iPhone I set words in my autocorrect to automatically replace with something pre-written. For example I use @@ to automatically type out my email address so I don’t need to. Or ## for my phone number.

    Is there a way to do that with the chrome OS?
