Default How can I create a backup of all auto text entries?

Is there a way to do this automatically or only by manually keeping a
document of this information. Could I export all auto text entries to a
document?

AutoText entries are saved in templates, Normal.dot by default. See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/FilesToBackup.htm and
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...latesStore.htm.

Jay Freedman has a couple of utilities for this. http://jay-freedman.info
However, AutoText is stored in templates. If you backup the templates, you
back up the AutoText. Are you sure we are talking about AutoText and not
AutoCorrect?

See http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm for step-by-step
instructions on moving / sharing / copying / backing-up customizations
including AutoText, AutoCorrect, keyboard assignments, toolbars, macros,
etc.
