MSOffice 2007 finding autotext / myLot

Philippines

As much as I can I delayed using the Office 2007 because I know it would create a mess in my mind. Now, I have no choice but to use Windows 2007. My problem is, I am very used to using autotext in Windows 2003, I am having a hard time trying to find what could be the similar thing this is in 2007. Could anybody have any idea what autotext is in Windows 2007? All help is much appreciated ... thank you very much.

There is still an autotext option in Office 2007. I don't use Autotext but I found this link to guide you in activating and using autotext in 2007. I have tried the instructions and it is quite easy to do. You can also migrate any existing autotext entries that you have from 2003. The link is below: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word-help/add-autotext-HA010255209.aspx Copy and paste it to the address bar in your web browser. Good luck!

Thanks... this is quite useful... I have been reading and studying it and I was able to do what I wanted to do. But migrating existing autotext entries still has to be done one by one or that is how I understand it should be done. I want to use the old feature when it automatically appears. I still have to understand how that is to be done since I can't find it yet. For now looking for them in the quick parts, building blocks organizer will do. I really panicked when I couldn't see what I had saved yesterday.
