Framers, I'm looking for ideas on how to ensure that certain words and phrases in a document are always italicized whenever they are used. Perhaps someone knows of a script that will do this. If not, I'll ask Rick when he gets back on his feet. Ideally, there would be an external master list of the words to be italicized. When opened, the working file would access the master list of words and make sure that any word in the list is italicized when it appears in the working document. I should be able to add to the master list of words; I'm not concerned about what happens if I delete a word from the master list.
Restrictions: I'm not willing to do a search/replace operation every time a working document is revised. And I'm not willing to do anything more than type a word in the working document for it to be recognized as needing italics. Although I have Silicon Prairie's Autotext add-on, I don't think that it does what I need. I have a vague memory of MSWord or some elderly word processor (the only kind I'm familiar with since I'm elderly) having this functionality. Any ideas?
