I'm seeing the same thing Matthew Woehlke is seeing.  There is no 
"Replace" tab in the AutoCorrect menu.  The only options are 
"Exceptions", "Options" "Custom Quotes" and "Word Completion".  In the 
"Options" menu there is suppose to be a "use replacement table" setting  
but it does not exist.

For those that see these features, what versions of OOo are you using?  
In my case both v 2.3 (in Fedora 8) and v2.4 (in Fedora 9) show that I 
am using a "...product ...created by Red Hat Inc. based on 
OpenOffice.org" when I look at "Help>About OpenOffice.org".
