Hi,
I want to be able to type the english name for a plant animal etc and then
the latin name to be entered afterwards automatically. How do i do it? I am
using Microsoft Office Word 2003. Thankyou


What is a plant animal?

If you mean animals and plants, you will have to find the scientific
names yourself. You should be aware that scientific names ('Latin
names') change. For instance a plant can be placed in a different
genus, and then the first part of the name will change.
Thousands of plant names have changed over the years.
If the name is important to you, you should consult a systematic
biologist. Books are of limited value, as they soon become obsolete.


Kind regards,

Rob.
