How do I save auto correct entries
I am running Windows 98 and Word 2000...I want to save my Auto Correct
entries and use them on a laptop computer I just bought. Can someone give me step by step instructions on where to find the file that contains the Auto correct entries, so that I may back it up? I looked at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...utocorrect.htm, but this didn't help. Thanks! |

How do I save auto correct entries
The article in question is your best bet for backing up and restoring
AutoCorrect entries. You can locate the .acl files manually, but there's no guarantee that you'll replace them correctly, and the formatted AutoCorrect entries are stored in Normal.dot. If you want to back up ALL your AC entries and transfer them to another computer, you need the macro you can download as part of the AutoCorrect.zip file. -- Suzanne S.
