??? Sorry, don't follow. Where is the .dot file? I apologize but as I
said,
I'm a newbie. But I do thank you for trying to help me.

Got it! Thanks, Suzanne!!! I was able to move them to a word doc and
print
them. I'd also like to somehow move them to another computer now but am
not
sure how to do that part. (Please keep in mind that I'm pretty new to
all
this stuff!)

You need to download the AutoCorrect.zip file and use the utility
provided.
Forget about the other methods.

I tried opening C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\OFFICE11\1033.MSO.ACL
but
it said there was no program available to open it. I looked around
online
a
little but can't find how to open it. Do you know what program I
need
to
open
it and where I can obtain it?
I also tried adding an AutoCorrect entry and then searching for it
but
nothing turned up.
Thanks again for trying to help me!

They do not address Word 2003, only previous versions. But I'm
no
computer genius (by a long shot!!) so maybe I just don't know
how
to
adapt the instructions from Method 1 for my version . . . can
anyone
tell me a step-by-step way to do this? Thanks, Greg, for
answering!

Am desperately trying to move my AutoCorrects to another
computer,
or at minimum, print them out. Found some instructions for
earlier
versions of Word, but not Word 2003. Anyone know how? Why is
this
not easier?!
