Regarding the problem in Word 2007... Here, I found that autocomplete of dates *stopped* working correctly after applying SP1. If I start Word in safe mode or use the /a switch, it works. Also, if I delete the Options key in the registry, it works. However... for the latter, while it works the 1st time I start Word after deleting the Options key, it's then broken again the 2nd and subsequent times I start Word.

Have you installed any updates lately such as SP3?

worked fine a month ago and now it doesn't work and none of my settings have
changed. My coworkers have the same issue.

It works fine in English (UK) versions (the first time it has worked
correctly in any version of Word). I would expect this to be fixed in the
first ServicePack due early next year. But you should call Microsoft and
report it as a bug to make sure that it is logged correctly (the more
reports a bug receives, the higher the priority given to a bug).
