Default Microsoft Word Autotext

I was hoping that somebody would know how to save all the auto text
entries that I have accumulated over the years. I recently bought a
new Dell with office xp installed. However, I cannot figure a way to
save the auto text from my old PC and put them into my new PC. I have
over 200 names and addresses that I have added to auto text.
Any help would be a great help and time saver.

Default Microsoft Word Autotext

If you haven't specifically put them somewhere else, all your AutoText
entries are stored in the Normal.dot template. Back up that template (and
any others you've created or modified) and transfer it to the new computer.
See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/FilesToBackup.htm for details.
