Auto suggest words

S

Sid

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?

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;
