This still works for me. I have an AutoText entry named "lorem," and I can
type just the initial l and press F3 and get the AutoText entered.

Note that neither AutoComplete nor F3 will work until you have typed four
*unique* characters. If all her AutoText entry names begin with the same
characters, then she'd have to type past those to get something unique.

The old ones were all unique, but just one character, eg 's', 't', etc
etc.

So she used to go, 's', F3 - done.

Now she has had to change that to a four char entry, and use
autocomplete, ie, 'sand' ... autocomplete brings up the entry and
Enter.
