As mentioned years ago, there are several requests for this.  I would really
like to use Autocomplete in Writer but not in Calc.  For examples, the single
quote correction is nice in writer, but a pain in Calc, where I routinely use
single quotes to mean "don't change my text" - but have to use "undo" after
every single quote to prevent that change!  Similarly with typing fractions
(e.g., 1/2 to mean 0.5 or a date is rendered as the half-fraction symbol) in
Calc is, frankly, absurd, whereas it IS desirable in Writer and Impress.  I
don't understand why this request has been ignored for nearly 7 years.  Is there
some fundamental reason that autocorrect must be linked across all programs? 
Apparently not, because the Autocomplete component is separate in each.  Can
anything be done about this?
