I have added many medical terms to my MS Word Spell Checker. (By clicking ADD
when a word was in red during the spell check.

I have purchased a new lap top and wish to move the words in the existing
spell checker to the Spell Checker on my new computer.

How do I do this?

All those words were added to a file named Custom.dic. See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/FilesToBackup.htm. Once you have a backup
of it (which is an excellent idea anyway), just copy it to the same folder
on the new computer.
