Default Is it possible to use wild cards or regular expression in autocorrect

Hi all,
I am using MS Word 2007. Is it possible to use wild cards or regular expression in autocorrect ? Please see this scenario ;
This is some sample words - "Karanam" . "Varanam", "Pokanam"
All of this words ends with "nam". But when i type these words in MS Word, i often presses an extra "a" and words become like this -- "Karanaam" . "Varanaam", "Pokanaam"
You see the words now ends like "naam" instead of "nam".


So i want to add these words into autocorrect list but it is good if i can use a wild card or regular expression for this.

There is no such provision. Each would be a separate AutoCorrect entry.
