I see that you have already received a reply concerning how this mailing list works. OpenOffice.org (OOo) uses AutoText in the place of auto fill. There is a description of how to use it in Help in OOo. I would also recommend you download some Guides to help you learn to use OOo more efficiently. There is the complete User Guide at http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/. There are some additional Guides by OOoAuthors on that same page. These latter Guides are available in individual chapters also at: http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/oooauthors2/. Enjoy!
