How do I set a word/phrase to auto-complete when typing? shipwright 12/17/2008 4:34:10 PM I am now using Vista and Office 2007. In my old XP I had Word set so that it auto-completes common words/phrases [such as my name and address] as I typed. How do I do this now?

"Stefan Blom" <no.spam[ at ]please.xyz> 12/18/2008 10:18:52 AM If you are referring to the AutoComplete feature for *AutoText*, then you are out of luck; it is no longer supported in Word 2007. What you can do is type the name of an AutoText entry and then press F3 to insert it. Alternatively, create AutoCorrect entries instead (this feature still works the same). For example, you can have AutoCorrect replace your initials with your full name. Do the following to access the settings for AutoCorrect: Click the Office button, and then click Word Options. In the Proofing category, click the AutoCorrect Options button. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "shipwright" <shipwright[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:2EB80C59-6F9F-4365-8EFE-D6AD1CB7C7C7[ at ]microsoft.com...
