While in a Word document, type -year-old. Then, highlight. Next, do Alt+T, select autocorrect. Name it yo. Then selected formatted text instead of plain text. Then, hit okay. You should be able to type 49yo and it should expand to 45-year-old. This will also work to bold entries or if you have a report where you want to make a normal, do the same thing. Type the whole report first, check for spelling errors, and then save as a formatted text.
