How can I set up Office 2003 to use an AutoText entry while worki.

Auto Text doesn't work when I'm typing in Overtype Mode. I use Auto Text for
long letters and other mailings. I've had it work while using Overtype Mode
before, but it was completely an accident how it was done and I don't know
how to fix to where it'll always allow me to do both. I swear though, it
has worked and it's allowed me to do this before I upgraded to Office 2003
Professional. Not sure how to fix it.

I believe that you can still use AutoText if you type the entry name and
press F3; you just don't get the AutoComplete tip.
