Auto suggest words

I would like to have a few of my own key words suggested (AutoText or
AutoComplete) just like when you are suggested "Sunday" when you type Sun and
you get a prompt that says "(Press Enter to Insert)".
I read in some forums that this used to be a feature of 2003 now no longer
available in 2007?

Quick parts replaces autotext but you need to press F3 to insert the text,
it doesn't pop up like it does with autotext.

Any way to make it pop up like it does for weekdays? Perhaps some
macro/programming workaround?

No, those are Smart Tags.
You can use AutoCorrect though to have it replace keywords with template
text automatically but there still won't be any pop-ups.
For more details see;
