Programming Function Key

I would like to know if anyone out there knows how to change a Function Key (F3, F4, etc.) so that when I push it, it spits out a line of text. I have a response that I type so often that I would love to be able to just hit F... whatever and it type my whole response. Does anyone know what I mean? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! :)

As an alternative, if you're using some MS product when you have to repeatedly type this line, you can look into using Macros to do it. This works in any Office product, including Outlook. Aside from that, you'll probably have to look into third party solutions, as fritz suggests.
