SUMMARY

The following macro inserts all of the AutoText entries in your Normal.dot (global template) file into a new document. The new document includes the name of each AutoText entry in bold letters, followed by the actual AutoText entry.

NOTE: You can quickly print a list of all AutoText entries without using this macro example. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. On the File menu, click Print.
  2. In the Print dialog box, change the Print what box to AutoText entries.
  3. Click OK.
