sorry in advance if this is the wrong forum:

i'd like to know if there is a way around the
32-character-long limitation for autotext entires in word
2000/2003? perhaps a keypress event that triggers a check
against a list of strings that i have saved somewhere?

a point in the right dierection would be great,
Chris

Where did you get the idea that there was a 32 character limit? It
definitely doesn't apply to 2003.

I'm pretty sure you asked this question in another group last month. The
answer there was that you are confusing the length of the autotext name with
the length of the contents.
