How do I set up glossaries in Word? (common phrases typed into a document)

I may use various glossaries in one document.

Any suggestions would be helpful

A glossary is a type of dictionary intended to explain terms used in the
document - what I think you are looking for is autotext.

Good catch, Graham! If the OP didn't call him/herself "WordNewbie," I would
suspect he/she was a longtime Word user who remembers that the repository of
AutoText entries was called the Glossary in early versions.
