Default Autotext filling in incorrect text

I have a client who has created a template with many AutoText entries. One is
called "fn160t" and another is "160t". When typing "fn160t" it fills in the
autotext entry for "160t" and leaves the fn at the beginning. It seems to
ignore the letters at the beginning and goes right to the numbers. Any
suggestions of how to get Word to recognize them as 2 seperate Autotext
entries?

Hi maryj-

In Word 2000 I set up 2 AT entries with the exact names in your post and had
no trouble.

Are you sure the user isn't typing a 'space' between the fn & the 160t? Was
the 'fn160t' AT name saved with a space?

Regards |:)
