Default auto correct does not use words added to custom dictionary

I copied my custom dictionary from another machine.

When I type, the automatic spell checker flags misspelled words as errors
(ex flags "tso"). After I click "spelling and grammar", word finds the
custom dictionary and recognizes "tso" as a valid word and changes it to caps
(as desired).

How can I set it to use the custom dictionary as I type (automatically
change tso to TSO) ?

It worked on my old machine why does it work differently now?

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP

type "tso" in a document, right click, choose AutoCorrect, AutoCorrect
Options, enter "tso" in Replace:, and add "TSO" in the With: fields.
