Default paragraph drop down menu

I want to create a drop down menu which will let me choose the paragraph that
I want to insert into my document. I tried with auto text but you are


limited on the amount of characters that you use. Any help would be great.
Thank you.

Select the paragraph, then, on the Insert tab, from the Quick Parts pulldown menu, choose Save Selection to Quick Part Gallery. This will make it a Building Block that you can choose from the Building Blocks Organizer under Quick Parts. I tested it with a paragraph of more than 100 words, and it saved the whole thing.

Look into the AutoTextList field.
