Is it possible to have Access automatically remember text you use often and
insert that text into your form(i.e. a memo)?


P.S. I'm not looking for the default option

I guess it depends upon how fancy you are trying to get.
Something flexible?

You can have a table with all of your possible texts, and use a
DLookUp to insert the wanted text. This will require a bit of work and
some code but is flexible.

Did you look at the Autocorrect Options?
Tools + AutoCorrect Options

Enter an unusual combination of letters, let's say "xzx" in the
Replace box, then enter your text in the With box, i.e. "Call me at
(123) 456-7890"

Typing xzx in the field will insert the full text in it's place.
