Is there a shortcut for inserting autotext entries?

[Roy]

It was easy in Word 2003, where I set up codes as shortcuts for commonly used
phrases. However, the function seems harder to use in Word 2007 as I need to
chosse from a drop down box, rather than simply type the code and hit enter
and Word then inserted the relevant phase.

Is there an easy way in Word 2007?

Type the unique characters for correct autotext eg ABC then press F3 key to
play the autotext.
