Printing AutoText Entries

Summary: If you want to print a list of the AutoText entries on your system, you can do so quickly by making one change on the Print dialog box. Just use the Print What drop-down list to indicate what you actually want to print. (This tip works with Microsoft Word 97, Word 2000, Word 2002, and Word 2003.)

If you use the AutoText capabilities of Word, it is many times helpful to obtain a printout of your AutoText definitions. Word allows you to print such a list, which you can use as a reference. To print an AutoText list, follow these steps:

Select Print from the File menu. Word displays the Print dialog box. (Click here to see a related figure.)
Using the Print What pull-down list, select AutoText Entries.
Click on OK. The AutoText list is printed.
