Default Autotext

Hi,

We are networked using terminal services. Our version of
Word is 2000.

We have a document that is created by selecting individual
paragraphs. Each individual paragraph is stored in its
own file, and the user does Insert - File to select the
paragraphs they want to include in the document. There
are about 100 paragraphs to choose from.

One user asked if we can have all the pagagraphs stored as
AutoText entries instead of individual files. I know we
can, but is there a way to make these AutoText entries
available globally, so each individual user doesn't have
to create their own set of AutoText entries?

Thanks,

Yes, making AutoText available globally is easy. See
http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm for step-by-step instructions
on moving / sharing / copying customizations including AutoText,
AutoCorrect, keyboard assignments, macros, etc.
