autocorrect file

[Sam]

I need to move my autocorrect file to a new username on my laptop. When I
look under msdn documentation, it shows that this file should be here:

C:\DocumentsandSettings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Office\mso1033.acl

When I look under the username that does have access to my autocorrect file,
there is no folder "Application Data".

Also, when I search the computer for files, there is no mso1033.acl,
although I have mso.acl in several places, including C:\Program
File\Microsoft Office\Office12\3082

Is there something I can do to find out what file users are accessing (what
the active mso.acl file is) and how to get my new username accessing that
file?

Thanks so much
