[dba-Tech] Word AutoText question

Susan,
Using the old-fashioned way, I typed

<nl>

</nl>

Then I selected the entry, chose Insert > AutoText > New and gave it the 
name <n

Next, I typed <n and pressed F3 - voila my entry.  I haven't gone on to 
get it to automatically fill in the rest of the entry.  But the <n and 
F3 combo works.

Hope this helps,
T
