Repeat phrases
Well, there's one way, which I've just tried. But there may be a much
shorter one. Open a blank document in Word. Type in your wanted expression (with a leading space?). Save it as say fred (as long as there isn't another fred file!). Then in your main document, at each wanted point type ALT-I, l, (that's Insert, file) fred. But here must be a quicker and easier way. Stand by. wrote in message ... I'm sure this is dead easy.

Repeat phrases
Ok Another way I've just tried. In a blank document, set up to record a
Macro, type in the expression. Then close the Macro and assign a short cut key to it (I've chose CTRL-ALT-K for mine (hope that doesn't clash with anything). There could still be an even better way that the real experts will outline shortly, I've no doubt! .. wrote in message ... Well, there's one way, which I've just tried.

Repeat phrases
Several methods are collected in the article at
http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Repeating_Data.htm. For example, use a bookmark and a cross-reference (see item 3 in the article), or a document property (item 4). Alternatively, you can apply a character style to the phrase and then insert StyleRef fields to reference the styled phrase. See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/StyleRef.htm. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Courjam" wrote in message ...

Ane yet another. Create an autotext item. Assign an unused shortcut key to
it. wrote in message ... Ok Another way I've just tried. In a blank document, set up to record a Macro, type in the expression.
