thanks, stefan, but is there any way of globally formatting the two thousand
or so customized entries i have in plain text retroactively in one fell swoop,
do you suppose? don't think i have the time to fish them out one by one. :-(
the procedure you describe below is the one i've always used but by default
it arrives in the dialogue box as plain text, not formatted. i'm almost never
prompted to save the normal template.

If you want an AutoCorrect entry to be available no matter which language is
applied to the insertion point, make sure that the entry is *formatted* (it
will then be stored in the Normal template).
To create a formatted AutoCorrect entry, type the text (or other contents)
that you want added, select it (them) and then display the AutoCorrect
dialog box. Type a name for the entry, click Add, and then close the dialog.
If/when you are prompted to save the Normal template, choose to do so.
