About 2/3 of the time, my Microsoft Word autocapitalizes the letter i in front of words, much like it would for the word "I"; so a sentence might read "I was walking In the park, where I met my friend John Inside the cafe", capitalizing In and Inside. I can go back and correct it and it doesn't recapitalize but it's really annoying, and I can't figure out how to disable it.

This is likely caused by the settings for "predictive typing" of the tablet.
No, doesn't do it in other apps. In fact, doesn't do it in Outlook. Just Word.
In that case, make sure that the correct language formatting has been applied to text and check which AutoCorrect entries are defined in your installation of Word, for the selected language.
The key here is that language is a property of text characters. For "everything" on language formatting, see http://wordfaqs.ssbarnhill.com/MasterSpellCheck.htm.

Thanks, but that was original my point: I can't find autocorrect entries in the app. It doesn't appear to exist. The language is correct.
Which operating system are you running on the tablet?
Do you have an Office subscription or just some basic version of Office with limited functionality?

Yes, I have a subscription. Just updated the app in the Play store about an hour ago, but the issue persists.
UPDATE: I had to use my computer's full version of Word to check the autocorrect options and remove the auto capitalization of "i" -- which, incidentally, is still annoying because now it won't auto capitalize if I actually want "I"... I tried adding "i[space]" into autocorrect instead, but it wouldn't accept it.
