[Solved] autocorrect

I would like to use autocorrect to easily bring up one or more paragraphs at a time. Is there any way to have open office writer maintain the FORMATTING of the substitute phrase?

Have you tried AutoText?

Thank you for the suggestion. I have tried it, and while it does maintain the alignment and spacing (big improvement), I cannot get it to retain BOLD, etc.[/b]

When you clicked the AutoText button to save did you select New rather than New (Text only)?
