you can add this line of code to a template, put it in your startup directory, and it will attach the template with all the autotext, styles, macros, etc. attached and readily available:

[VBA]
Sub AutoNew()
With ActiveDocument
.UpdateStylesOnOpen = False
.AttachedTemplate = _
"C:\Documents and Settings\Mom\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates\YourTemplateName.dot" 'change to the PATH and template containing the autotext, etc.
End With
End Sub
[/VBA]

Although about thinking about it... you may need an AutoExec macro.... but try this first and let us know.


May work -- I'm still ruminating upon it. But give it a try.
