Word Addresses

Is there anyway that you can ask Word to 'Autocomplete' or 'Autofill' the address on your document if it is one you use regularly or have stored in Outlook?

RE: Word Addresses

Hello Karen

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

Word does have a feature called AutoText, which allows you to get Word to finish entering something in for you by pressing Enter, once you have started typing the beginning of the entry. You will probably have noticed this using Word before when typing in say days of the week or months of the year - the rest of the word will come up in a screen tip and when you press Enter it fills the rest in.

In Word 2003 you can set you own AutoText entries by going to Tools - AutoCorrect Options then the AutoText tab. Type the complete address into box under Enter AutoText entries here, and click Add, and OK.

You can test this by typing the beginning of the address, then you should see the rest as a screentip and press Enter to complete the address.

Word tip:

Changing text to subscript

If you are working with text and numbers and want to convert the chemical symbol for water H20 so that the 2 is lowered, you can highlight the number 2, click on Format-text and check on the Subscript box
