Create an Abbreviation to insert an address
I suspect that a formatted autocorrect entry would work best - particularly
with Word 2007. Enter the address as you require it, then select it. From the autocorrect dialog (Tools Autocorrect Options in Word 2003. Word Options Proofing Autocorrect Options in 2007) put a suitable shortcut eg #add in the left box and check the formatted text dialog box. type #add (or your preferred alternative) to enter the address. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Sandy" wrote in message ...
