Does anyone know the files I might be able to copy to migrate the extensive
list of autocorrections I am using in word 2000 and migrate that list to word
2003.

I don't want to cut them out of word 2000 and re create them in word 2003.

I was able to copy my custome dictionary file over and thought I could do
the same with the auto correct entries I have made over the last two years.

thanks

Mike

Unformatted AutoCorrect entries are stored in .ACL files, while
formatted entries are stored in the Normal.dot template. See
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/FilesToBackup.htm and
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/ExportAutocorrect.htm.
