Does anyone know of a version of Jay Freedman's autotextloader and
autotextdumber for moving autotext from a template to a standard work
document table?

For some reason it works in 2003 but not in 2007 and I can't work out the
reason

Thanks in advance for any assistance

Because it is only written for 97-2003 not 2007 which uses BuildingBlocks
with categories of Autotext and QuickParts.

That's precisely right. Although to users it looks like AutoText in 2007 has
just "been made part of the Building Blocks feature", from a programming point
of view things are very different and not at all programmer-friendly. I simply
haven't had the time to invest in updating the utilities, and it isn't going to
happen soon. Sorry...
