Default Need Help Inserting Text Word 2003

The function is called autocorrect - type or paste the boilerplate text into
a document, select it, then tools autocorrect options autocorrect. Give
it a name eg fsp and if necessary check the formatted check box..

At my work, we have different products for which we have "boiler
plate" text that we paste in to all documents, but this is obviously
wasting a lot of time by copying and pasting.

I have seen something in the past done, but I don't know what exactly
its called where I can simply type in the name of a product and word
will automatically paste the boiler plate text and picture into my
document. For instance if I type "fsp" and hit enter, the boiler
plate text about freestanding platforms will be inserted into my
document where typed fsp.

Anyone know what this function is called? Is this a macro? I'm
willing to do the research and work into it, but I don't even know
where to start.

anything will be helpful, thanks
