Can I insert auto text entries using the keyboard in Word 2007?

In prior versions of MS Word I had auto text entries and as I was typing it
would pop up a yellow box and I could either click Tab or Enter and it would
enter the auto text entry I had previously saved and named. I have not
figured out how to do this in Word 2007 without going through the
toolbar/ribbon and using building blocks (or by having the auto text as a
shortcut on the toolbar). I would like to be able to have it pop up as I am
typing, without having to remove my fingers from the keyboard. Any
suggestions?

AutoComplete is no longer supported in Word 2007, but you can type the name
of an AutoText entry and press F3 to insert the entry.
