Hello

OS - XP
App - Word 2002

Formatted AutoCorrect entries are saved to [normal.dot]. How can I
Backup/Restore them?

Observations:
1. Word's Organiser is not designed to copy Formatted AutoCorrect entries to
another file.

2. A Template I found called [AutoCorrect.dot] does not Backup/Restore
Formatted AutoCorrect entries.

As always any help on this one would be much appreciated.

Regards
Mike

Where did you find it? Are you aware of the following article:

Hi ?B?TWlrZSBGYXVsa25lcg==?=,

Support.dot supplies a tool for this. I think you'll find an article on the
topic at word.mvps.org, as well.

Yes, the add-in he is referring to is the one you get there. (I checked that
before *not* replying. g I don't know of any way to extract formatted
AutoCorrects from Normal.dot.)

Cindy & All

Many thanks for replying. I stand corrected [AutoCorrect.dot] does work
perfectly. Many thanks for your assistance.

Discovering that a users 'Formatted AutoCorrect' was saved in their
[normal.dot] was quite a suprise. Do you know of anything else stored in
there besides a users: Styles, AutoText, Macros, Toolbars & Formatted
AutoCorrect?

Mike

There are a number of KB articles on "Where Word's settings are stored."
These indicate which settings are stored in Normal.dot and which in the
Registry and other places.
