Default Formating text and text box

Can a text box be assigned a specific format ie. Heading 1 so when a user
types into the box it automatically is formatted as Heading 1?

Insert a text box set the style as Heading 1 and save the lot as an autotext
or formatted autocorrect entry.

Select the text box (by clicking its edge, not the inner area) and press
Alt+F3. Give it a name that you can remember.
