migrate office 2000 formatted autotext to office 2007
Am trying to move Office 2000 formatted autocorrect items to Office 2007.
From what I have read, the formatted ones should come over from your old Normal.dot and the unformatted ones come from the .acl file. I was able to just copy the .acl file from my Office 2000 folder to the new machine that has Office 2007. But my formatted ones that supposedly were stored in my Normal.dot did not come over when I replaced the Normal.dotm with my Office Normal.dot and had Word 2007 generate a new Normal.dotm from the old normal.dot. Is there a way? -- Judy L |

Rename your old normal.dot from Word 2000 to, say, Mycustomizations.dot and
place it in the Startup folder of your Word 2007 installation. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Office Productivity Consultant" wrote: Am trying to move Office 2000 formatted autocorrect items to Office 2007.

Sorry, I didn't read this carefully enough; I thought the original message
was referring to AutoText. :-( See the following article: http://word.mvps.org/faqs/customizat...utocorrect.htm. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ...
