Add words to AutoCorrect with increased speed(Word 2007, 2010)

           You often save abbreviations and words in AutoCorrect so that Word inserts them automatically. But unfortunately, it takes a lot of clicks to reach the dialog box, and that can be annoying!
            From its Version 2007 onwards, Microsoft has nicely tucked away “AutoCorrect Options”. If you need to access it often, it is ideal to defi ne a key combination for it.
            Or you can anchor the command in “Quick Access Toolbar”, which is the icon bar that you can in the upper left corner of the screen in Word 2007. For this, right click at a free place on the menu bar and select the context command “Customize quick access toolbar”. In the combination field “Choose Commands from”, change the setting to “All Commands”. In the list below, search and select the entry “AutoCorrect Options” and then click “Add” button in the centre. Confirm the dialog box with “OK”.

             If you want to defi ne another key combination in stead of or in addition to this one, click the Offi ce button in Word 2007, select “Word Options” and then “Customize”. In Version 2010, open “File → Options” and select the category “Adapt Menu Bar”. Then click “Adapt” near “Key combinations”. Select the “All Commands” setting at the end of the list to the left in the “Category” fi eld. Select “EditAutoText” in the list to the right and click in the input fi eld for the key combination below. Now press an unused key combination, such as [Ctrl]+[Shift]+[G], click “Assign” and then “Close”. After that, you will be able to access the desired dialog box immediately using this key combination. If a word is already selected, Word adopts it into the AutoCorrect dialog box.
