Auto suggest words
I would like to have a few of my own key words suggested (AutoText or
AutoComplete) just like when you are suggested "Sunday" when you type Sun and you get a prompt that says "(Press Enter to Insert)". I read in some forums that this used to be a feature of 2003 now no longer available in 2007? |

Auto suggest words
It is correct that AutoComplete no longer works for AutoText entries
(Building Blocks) in Word 2007. However, you can create an AutoCorrect entry to replace one item with another. Click the Office button, and then click Word Options. In the Proofing category, click AutoCorrect Options. On the AutoCorrect tab, select "Replace text as you type," and then specify the word and its replacement. Click Add. Repeat the procedure if necessary, and click OK when you are done. AutoCorrect isn't limited to plain text, by the way: you can have Word replace a word with a formatted word or with a graphic for example. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Sid" wrote in message ...
