I just started using the Outlook 2007 version today and I'm missing the
autotext feature. I found how to do it in Word 07, but I can't make it work
or find how to make it work in Outlook. Please help.

Do you mean Quickparts?

Write something in a new email, highlight it, then use the quickparts button
to add it to the library. It's on the Insert Tab.

I guess this is the replacement feature. So instead of accepting the text as
you type, you add it to this gallery and select it when you want it. Can I
edit this gallery if required? Remove items? Change fonts/styles?

Thanks for the help.
