How to save and insert canned copy?

I want to be able to keep canned copy that can be easily inserted into a
document.

I used to be able to do it by typing in a key word and pressing F3 to insert
the copy.

You still can. The feature is called AutoText. If you still have your old
system where you did this, chances are you can copy the AutoText. See
http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm for step-by-step instructions
on moving / sharing / copying / backing-up customizations including
AutoText, AutoCorrect, keyboard assignments, toolbars, macros, etc.

You can try this: 1) Go up to the Tools Menu, then to
Options.
2) Click on the Edit tab
3) Make sure that "use Ins Key for Paste" is selected
4) click "OK"
Highlight and copy the text that you want to insert from
the document you have already saved.
Then when you hit the "Insert" key, it will be pasted
into the new document.
