Default Can you transfer auto text entries from Word 2003 to 2007?

Unfortunately, AutoComplete was removed from Word 2007 (except for a few
specific instances, such as dates).

Hello,

Thanks for your help. Will the auto text entries be available only if I
click on them, or will they appear as they normally do after typing a few
characters? I'm having trouble getting it to do this.

Thanks so much.

Hi Donna,

By adding the template from Word 2003 to the Word 2007
....\Document Parts\1033\ (for English U.S.) folder the Autotext entries

will be available in Word 2007 through the
Insert=QuickParts menu.
