The only way I can think of is to treat it as parenthesised, in which case there should still be no capital.<br /><br />A word-processor is not smart enough to get this sort of thing right, just turn off whatever auto correction is doing this. Incidentally, when you are using indented paragraphs does MS word still indent the first para after a title? Open Office still gets it Wrong, Lyx always got it right.Graemehttp://pietersz.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19291338.post-66213043885748852382010-11-22T13:33:40.590+05:302010-11-22T13:33:40.590+05:30I would capitalise the Further i think.
