When lower case text is typed, OpenOffice.org changes the first letter to uppercase. How do reverse this setting?

This setting is designed to correct sentences mistakenly typed starting with a lower case letter.

To reverse this setting:

Select Tools-AutoCorrect/AutoFormat-[Options].
Near the top of the list, uncheck the box next to "Capitalize the first letter of every sentence"
Click 'OK' at the bottom of the dialog to apply the change.
