We are going through hell at work. All our contracts are very automated
using the autotext/autocomplete feature. The way we use autotext is we
create legal language and add it to our global.normal. Once added there we
used to go to our templates and create an autotext macro which would
unprotect our file, grab the language and protect it again. The way we used
to load or copy the autotext to the template was through the organizer. It
used to have a tab called autotext..where we could go in and copy from or
normal to the template. What happened to that tab?

That's a very odd way to add AutoText. Usually you insert it (in previous
versions) by typing the first few letters and accepting the AutoComplete
suggestion or by typing part of the entry name and pressing F3. The latter
method still works in Word 2007 (there is no AutoComplete). Or you could use
Insert | AutoText. In Word 2007, this is now Insert | Text | QuickParts.
AutoText is now part of the Building Blocks general category of prebuilt
elements, and there is a Building Blocks Organizer.
