Go to the Tools menu and choose AutoCorrect. 

On the front tab (AutoCorrect) uncheck the box next to "Capitalize first
letter of sentences". 

There are other options there as well that you may want to turn on or
off. 

Hope this helps!

Dear Colleagues,

Ever since updating to MS Office 2001I have been annoyed by the
automatic
spell checker in Word (and Entourage) which insists on capitalizing any
word
at the beginning of a line or after a period, e.g. An example. This
happens
even when automatic spell checking while-you-type is turned off. I've
looked
everywhere for some way to kill this "feature".  I would be forever
grateful
to anyone who has figured out how to drive a stake through its heart.
Thanks in advance for your help.  Jack
