AutoText is still in Word 2007 but is now part of the Building Blocks
feature. It's discussed in detail at
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/AutoText.htm.

In particular, the only 'autocomplete' in 2007 is for dates, not for other
kinds of building blocks. If you want an autocomplete, use the AutoCorrect
feature instead. See
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/AutoCorrect.htm.
