Default fields and then merging text-automating a task

Suzanne,

With reference to the ink that you supplied, have I got the syntax correct
with spaces etc? as I do not seem to have this working.

{ AutoTextList "product" \s "ProductStyle" \t "Right-click to select
product" }

Thanks

Mike

Look at AutoText: this allows you to create and save virtually anything in
Word (text, words, tables, graphics, etc) and assign a shortcut code which
can be repeated using the shortcut code +F3.

OK no experience with this at all!!

I have a document that is arrange in a series of tables so that under a
specific heading scores can be entered and then a large part of the

table
is
for comments.

I would like to have a series of standard comments on another document
that
can be merged into the original table comment area by using a code or

hot
key
or such that will remove the manual repitition.

I thought I would need to create part of the table that has the

comments
area as a field? and then ????

Understand what I am trying to do??
