A while ago I created a 3 lines text to use as auto-complete. It was my name and address, every time I type three letters of my name I have the option to auto-complete it. I don't remember how I did that. Now I am trying to make more entries and I can't figure out how to do them. I tried insert,auto text and a box comes out, but I it gives me a choice of only one line text.I would like to make more than one line line text like my address. Any help will be appreciated

If you're talking about Word, you need to select all the text you want to be in your AutoText first, then use Insert/Autotext/New, which will bring up a dialogue box which asks you what you want to call your Autotext entry.
