Can Autotext be used with Excel?

Does anyone know how to use Word autotext functionality with Excel?

Thank you!

Hi Gary

i don't think you can, however, autocorrect allows up to 255 characters per
entry. You could therefore make autocorrect entries instead of autotext
ones (the autocorrect file is shared between excel & word)

hope this helps
Cheers
