Windows 8 Personalize Hot Keys?

[LTCSZ]

Hi: I am not sure if what I want to do is possible, but here goes: I would like to be able to create hotkeys within Win 8.1 with frequently used phrases, i.e., email address, postal address, name, and so on...Is it possible to do this within Windows or do I need an external program? If so, could you recommend a good one? Thanks for your help...

I'm pretty sure you need a 3rd party program for that. I'd recommend Autohotkey: http://www.autohotkey.com/

yup, can't agree more, you can use the hotkey manager for Windows - AutoHotKey to customize your desired hotkeys, or you can use Hotkeyz, which is a bit a more traditional.
