Could anybody tell me where the autocorrect files are stored. Autotext is
stored in the normal.dot but where are the autocorrects? Twice now, I have
had to re-type everything. Please can you help?

I also back up all my complicated tables, which are in AutoText, to the
computer and a disc. That way they were transferred to the new computer I
just got and it is easy to save them again to AutoCorrect or Autotext. I
started doing this after having three hard drive fails at work (we switched
to a new tech person and got new Dell computers), but I am still paranoid
about this. Jeanne
