Using AutoCorrect in Microsoft Excel

Are there words that you consistently misspell? You can use AutoCorrect in Excel to automatically fix your mistakes. You can also create your own Auto Correct or Auto Update entries in Microsoft Excel. For example, you can create an Autocorrect entry that autocorrects *APU* to *Azusa Pacific University*.
