I cannot for the life of me figure out how to delete unwanted auto fill suggestions. If I want to type '60 minute massage', it comes up even after I type "60", which is great, but now i have all of these other tabbed suggestions that I have to tab through before I can get to "60 minute massage" based on other entries I have to make for other 60 minute services. Is there any way I can sort through or even rearrange the order of such automated fill ins? Right now, when I type "60" here is the order of auto fill suggestions:
60 HS
60/EVT
60 minute PKG
60min/AO
(I now have to tab through all of these to finally get to ;)
60 minute massage
Which is the main default of what I usually need. Please help! I would like to rearrange the 60 minute massage to pop up first every time, or to just delete ALL auto fills and then start fresh?

I'm having to guess that you are talking about entering data into a spreadsheet document, not a word processor one. Is that so?

I assumed that the message was about a word-processing document. If so, if you go to Tools > AutoCorrect > AutoCorrect Options there's a 'Word Completion' tab that seems to give control over what word completion is done.

I had wondered that but ruled it out, for various reasons:
o The default minimum word length is 10, so it is unlikely that entries as short as some of the questioner's examples would be harvested.
o Only single word entries are harvested.
o Complete suggestions are not provided: merely partial ones as far as they are common.
o The user would not be able to tab through suggestions, as s/he describes.
