I followed your instructions in creating the autotext entry and i did it
exactly as you said.
Thank you very much!

Your AutoText will not include paragraph formatting, unless you include
paragraph marks. It will include direct and character-style-based
formatting. If you include paragraph marks, then it will include all the
formatting instructions contained in those paragraph marks.
In recent versions of Word it is hard to not select a paragraph mark if
you
select text immediately before it. Try adding an unneeeded word at the
end
and selecting everything before the unneeded word.
You can clean up selected test by doing a copy and paste. Then select and
press Ctrl-Q and Ctrl-Spacebar to remove direct and character-style based
formatting. Then make it your AutoText.

Is there a way to add autotext entries without bringing in the
formatting?
Whenever I add autotext entries, the formatting of the surrounding text
comes along, and is re-inserted when I insert the autotext. I have
tried
selecting only the text (no paragraph marks), differnt styles, etc.,
but I
can not seem to remove the undesired format.
Alternatively, is there a way to force Autotext entries to always
assume
the
format of the text surrounding where they are inserted?
Thank you
.
