using hotkeys for repeated text
Hi -
I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to customize a hotkey to insert text that I specify. I'm using Word to produce a transcript of an audio interview where the format is Q&A with each new line beginning with the speaker's initials and a colon. It's very time consuming to type this on each new line so I'm hoping I can use a hot key to help. I'm using word97. Thanks |

I would create a macro with a keyboard assignment if you just want the
initials and a colon at the beginning of each line. It's simple enough to do. http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...roToHotkey.htm -- Carol A.
