Enabling Auto Replace Shortcut Substitution

Go Up to Working with Code Workbench Auto Replace Shortcuts

Before configured Auto Replace shortcuts can be automatically substituted with the associated full terms, you must first enable the Auto Replace feature.

To enable Auto Replace

1. Select Tools > Code Workbench to open the Code Workbench dialog
2. Select Enable Auto Replace.

   Note: If Replace substrings is unselected, only blank-delimited occurrences of auto replace expressions are replaced when an activation event occurs. If selected, all occurrences of auto replace expressions are replaced. For example, consider an Auto Replace expression of BEG that is to be replaced with Begin. With Replace substrings enabled, BEGBEG would be replaced with BeginBegin when an activation event occurs. With Replace substrings disabled, no replacement would occur.
