How to create a window showing building block organiser in 2007



Ideally I would like the window to be formated similiat to the autotext entry
in Word 2003 e.g. shows the list of names of the items then a preview of the
contents of the item. Ideally it would be a modeless window that could float
over the application but this is not necessary. The basic context is that I
use Word Autotext enties to insert comments into documents when making
assignments.

It works very well in Word 2003 (the autotext box allows you to easily key
through the enteries and the preview that is shown is large enough to read
the entries) but in 2007 it is not as easy to use (the names are not shown in
a list and the entries are not large enough to read). About 13 minutes into
the screeen movie at http://baker-evans.com/marker%27s-assistant/demo.html
there is a demo.

Any assistance woudl be gratefully received,
Pete Evans
