I just found this thread and downloaded Andy Pope's "solution". Now how do I
get it to be available for all workbooks, even the one I started with. It is
not saved so I have to keep reinstalling the add-in. Am I doing something
wrong?

You can't do this natively in 2007, but they left in the VBA hooks. Andy
Pope has an add-in that uses those hooks to apply patterns:
