Thank you both for your input!
Using the Archives and the Help File the following code seems to be
working with no problems:
abbreviations.$(file.patterns.html)=$(SciteDefaultHome)\abbrev.properties
abbreviations.$(file.patterns.props)=$(SciteDefaultHome)\abbrev.properties
Any file extension in either file.patterns can use the abbrev.properties
file and ...SciTE still considers abbrev.properties as the Global abbrev
file.
Can I assume that this method will work if I continue to add additional
file.patterns?
I'm setting SciTE up for my students to learn HTML & CSS.
I can add abbreviations and ctrl+shift=r tags to one abbrev file, at
least, during their initial learning curve.
This is a great editor!

Check first that this file is the one you think it is. Copy
$(SciteDefaultHome)\html.abbrev into the output pane and press Enter
after it as if you were trying to run it. Don't worry about the error
message. You should see something like:
$(SciteDefaultHome)\html.abbrev
C:\bin\SciTE\html.abbrev
The system cannot find the file specified.
Now select the expanded path and press Ctrl+Shift+O and that file
should open if it exists.
Also check that you have the patterns set up for your file extension.
