Default Autocomplete/Autotext/not sure...

Thanks - that's great for the current document, but I want it to always be
the case for ALL documents, new or old. How can I do this?

In Word 2003 I could type April, hit a space, then get a tool tip or
intellisense with the rest of the date, like April 10, 2009 and pressing
enter would enter it. Now, in Word 2007, on one computer it still does it,
but on another computer it doesn't. I've checked ALL the settings (I believe)
in Word Options in both computers and they're identical. What accounts for
the difference, and how can I get this feature back?
