Everyone in writing has to italicize certain names or titles over and over
again throughout their work. Is there an option to make this happen
automatically for particular words as you type? I suspect it could be done
through a macro, but I am a total novice in that.
I've looked at Options, but I haven't seen this. Am I missing something?


Yes, it can! :)

You just need to add the word to the Autocorrect list under Tools,
Autocorrect Options.

Let's say you always want "in situ" in italics. Type in situ, select both
words and apply italics.  Press Ctr+C to store it in memory.  Click on
Tools, Autocorrect Options. Notice that in situ already shows in the "With"
box and that "Text only" is unchecked. Now just type in situ in the Replace
box and click on New.

From now on, each time you type in situ it will be automagically italicized
;)
