See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Custom...utocorrect.htm.

Instead of messing with the .acl files (which don't contain the
formatted AutoCorrect entries anyway), use the AutoCorrect.dot
template from that article.

You are best off using a utility to put the entries into a Word document,
then move the document and run the utility again to restore the entries on
the new computer. 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.
