Default Auto text export to another PC - unable to

DEAR Graham
What I want is this template I made with 100 names to be transferred to my
wife's computer. So I tried from my computer to another computer. Failed to
see the 'LION NAMES' list and also the auto text entries.

So pls sugest how to go about transferring the template I made to another
computer. Read all the threads and did exactly same but no desired result.
Using word97.

Must thank you for quick response and I will be watching for your sugestion-

DEAR ALL
I opened new doc as template;

cut and pasted about 100 names;

blocked all names and gave the list name as 'LIONS NAMES';

high lighted each name and added it in the new auto list name;

deleted all the names;

saved it as 'LIONS TEMPLATE.DOT';

copied it to thumb drive and loaded it in another computer;

opened 'LIONS TEMPLATE.DOT'; tools-macro-macros-organizer- and
transferred all the 'styles' and 'auto text' entries from here to
'normal.dot' of another computer; closed the organizer;

saved as 'LIONS TEMPLATE.DOC'

But when I opened this document, i dont find the style 'LION NAMES'
and also dont find it in 'auto text'.

What I am doing wrong? Pls help.
