Autotext

How does autotext work in Word (and Outlook)?

RE: Autotext

Hi Helen

Thank you for your question.

Autotext is simply a feature that quickly allows you to enter a block of text into a document. It is used with text that you might find yourself typing in on a frequent basis.

To create autotext simply click on Insert-Autotext-Autotext.

In the resulting dialog box, you can type in the text you wish to save and then click add to add it to the list.

If you then return to your document, and type the first few words of the text, a note will pop up showing your complete entry. If you then press enter it will insert the text automatically.

Hope this is useful

Regards

Stephen
