Hey

I'm having an template to create some labels.
The lables are created with use of AutoText that I created.

Now I must change some text/image in the AutoText - How?


Kind regards

Johnny E Jensen

Hi Johnny,

Word doesn't provide any way to edit an AutoText entry in place. You
have to place the new text or image in a document, select it, and make
an AutoText entry as if it was a whole new one. When you enter the
same name as an existing entry, Word will ask whether you want to
replace the existing one, and you say yes.

If you just want to change part of an existing entry, first use the
Insert AutoText menu item (or just type its name and press F3) to
insert it into the document. Change that, and then store it with the
same name.
