Word 2007. Autotext issues, I’ll do my best to describe. All my autotext
entries were working fine, had transferred nicely from Word 2003. I use them
extensively in various templates, which recently had to have the font
changed. Since all my autotext was coming up in the old font, I went through
and changed all my autotext entries. It’s gone downhill from there.
When I type in the lead word(s), the information (one word to several
sentences, depending) comes in with an automatic hard return, no matter how I
try to save the entry without it. In another situation, I have a specific
style set up where both margins are indented and are set up to do that with a
keyboard shortcut. When that style is activated, if I use an autotext entry
in that indented paragraph, not only do I get the hard return, I also get my
entire paragraph kicked out past the previously set up indents, although the
indents are still shown on the ruler.
I have tried saving as Building Blocks, AutoText, QuickParts, etc. I don’t
know which I’m supposed to be using and none of them seem to work at all like
autotext did in 2003. Any help would be much appreciated!!
