how do i add words to auto text?
I think you've already received an answer for this in another newsgroup? If
not, post back and someone more knowledgeable about Word 2007 than I can help. One thing I can tell you is that if you select the text you want to add and press Alt+F3, you'll get the familiar dialog that allows you to name and add the entry. It will be saved in whatever template is currently selected as the default for AutoText entries in the AutoText dialog (if there still is such an entity). -- Suzanne S.

The "Save Selection to gallery name gallery" is found at the bottom of
most Building Block galleries. If the entry then the Save Selection command is found on the Insert tab under Quick Parts. The default template in the Create New Building Block dialog box is Building Blocks.dotx but unlike previous versions it's easy to change the Save in template and change it later if necessary. (The only thing that is lacking is the ability to move Building Blocks between templates en mass - the Organizer no longer has a tab for AutoText/Building Blocks.) If you are interested in a some screen shots and more detail (along with how to create new Building Blocks), here's an excerpt from a chapter I wrote on this topic: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/he...341311033.aspx Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.

Thank you ladies for your help. I was able to add all my words without any
