Default change the AUTO TEXT selections in the HEADER-FOOTER toolbar

Thank you both for trying. Sadly I don't quite follow enough to make the
change. I have been in 'footer' but to add a new auto text I seem to need to
be out of footer and back in "insert auto text". From there I don't see how
to change which ones show up in the "header footer" auto text mini list.

The AutoText entries shown on the Header and Footer toolbar are those that
were created in the Header or Footer style. If you create the AutoText entry
when you're in a header or footer, you'll be in that style; otherwise,
you'll have to apply it manually before creating the AutoText entry.

I have new AUTO TEXT that I want to easily select when I make a new

footer.
The current header- footer toolbar has the usual selections (created on,
filename etc). I have created the new auto text in the regular auto text

area
of word (insert auto text add) but don't know how to make it appear as

one
of the choices in the footer toolbar.
thanks
