Default Copying autotext entries to multiple templates

As an additional note, make sure you place only Word templates that contain
building blocks in this folder. When you access Building Blocks for the
first time in the Word session, Word will attempt to open every single file
in the Document Parts folder, even images g. The result can be errors or
an unnecessary delay as Word loads all of the files.

Hi Tinks,

You can use Insert=Quick Parts=Building Block Organizer to edit/move
individual entries between templates. However, if you have a
template with a building block (AutoText gallery or any of the other 35
galleries) in it, those entries will be available to all
templates and documents if you drop a copy of that file into the \Document
Parts\ folder or into one of its language specific
subfolders (i.e. ]Document Parts\1033\ for U.S. English formatted
entries.

I recently was upgraded from Word 2000 to Word 2007. I see that the
autotext
entries are now in the building blocks. How do I now copy autotext
entries
to multiple templates? I used to use the organizer, open the existing
template, and open the template I wanted to copy to and copy from one to
another.
