The answer is that it is probably alive and well and fulfilling its proper purpose - which is to apply cell formats quickly to a table of cells. It makes no sense for a single cell: that is why it is greyed out.

For some reason, I wasn't seeing that option under Tools, and I looked more than once. My only excuse is that it was late in the day. Thanks, Brian. That resolved my problem.

[libreoffice-users] What happened to autoformat option?
Greetings, I upgraded to LO 3.6.6.2 and just installed it on my HP laptop. However, Calc keeps changing the 1st character of a filename in a text cell to upper case. If I go back and edit it back to lower case, it sticks. However, it is a pain to have to do this every entry and the autoformat option in the Format menu is grayed out no matter what I do. Anyone know the trick to get this option back so I can remove this aggravating formatting permanently? I just checked on my desktop and the autoformat option is the same - grayed out! That is going to be a big hindrance to me, since I usually turn off all autoformatting. Thanks in advance.
