Copying autotext entries to multiple templates
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. -- Thanks for the help |

Copying autotext entries to multiple templates
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. ============= "tinks" wrote in message ...

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. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beth Melton Microsoft Office MVP https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/Melton What is a Microsoft MVP? http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/gp/mvpfaqs Guides for the Office 2007 Interface: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/tr...295841033.aspx "Bob Buckland ?:-)" 75214.226(At Beautiful Downtown)compuserve.com wrote in message ...
