I want to remove all default autotext entries ("salutation", "header/footer",
etc) and create some categories of predefined sentences.

So, I created a new template (Test.dot), went to the "template & add-ins"
organizer and removed all the default entries.
Then, I used word styles to create the new autotext category (which is, as
far as I know, the only way to create these categories). Finally, I entered
some text and created the new autotext entry. In the autotext menu, all
looked perfect: for example, I had only "My Category" with one entry.

The crazy error ocurred when I inserted the autotext (either using the menu
or the keyboard + F3): looking back in the menu, all the old categories which
I have removed where there again!!! Does somebody know what may cause this
problem?

I thought it could somehow be referring to the normal.dot again (despite
that I set the Test.dot in "template & add-ins" and in autotext "look in")
and I even went on removing all entries from normal.dot as well. But when I
inserted some autotext the entries all appeared again (where did they come
from is what I am wondering)!!!

I appreciate if you could help me

Thanks in advance,

Ricardo Pinto.

Ps: are styles the only way to create categories? There will be a problem if
I want an autotext entry to have different formats! I would have to create
"myautotextheader" for titles, "myautotextdefault" for regular text,...
