The Acrobat 7 add-in prevents changes to normal.dot from being saved.
Acrobat 5's does not.

No, nothing is saved. The time stamp on Normal.dot remains unchanged.

I do not have Acrobat 7. I do have Acrobat 5 though. Why do you ask?

Thanks

Does anything get saved to normal.dot? Have you installed Acrobat
Writer v7?

No. Word has closed down. I made sure of this by going into Task
Manager and looking at the running Processes.

The modified dates on Normal and the ACL's do not change.

Are you still using Word? That is, have you closed the Word
session? Additions like this normally aren't saved until you quit
Word?

Hi all,

Can someone pls tell me where AutoCorrect entries are stored in
Word 2003?

In "Microsoft Word 2003 for Law firms" it states that:
- The registry stores the location of the AutoCorrect file (.acl)
- Normal.dot stores the formatted AutoCorrect entries.
- The .acl file contains the unformatted AutoCorrect entries.

I've added an AutoCorrect entry in Word and the time stamp on
Normal.dot and the .acl file did not update. If the entry was not
stored in one of these locations. Where is it??

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this.

Thanks,
Matt
