Default Transfer to Vista -- dictionary and auto-correct did not transfer

Hi,

Transferred to Vista (on a new PC) from XP (old PC), but Word 2003 user
dictionary, auto-correct and other options did not transfer.
Both locations are Office 2003.

Where do I find these settings on the old system?

Please help, thanks.



Start-All Programs-Microsoft Office-Microsoft Office Tools-Save My Settings
Wizard. Create a file using this wizard, copy it to the new computer and
restore it using the same wizard.
