Combining autocorrect data from different templates?

[ptsc]

Is there any way to export and/or import autocorrect data
from different templates and/or to combine all autocorrect
data into one file?

You can copy autotext from one template to another by choosing Tools >
Templates and Add-ins > Organizer > "Autotext" tab. You'll need to
open up the templates you need to copy to and from, highlight the
autotext to be copied and then press the Copy button. You'll be able
to copy autotext from various templates into the one template this
way.

Cheers,

Sorry .. saw autocorrect but read autotext. Autocorrect entries are
not held in templates but are stored in an acl file which is located
in the application data\microsoft\office directory. From what I can
gather the name of the acl file is dependent on the language Word is
using - ie my version of Word is set to Australian so my autocorrect
file is mso3081.acl.

The easiest way to work out which autocorrect file is being used would
be to make a change to your autocorrect entries and see which file has
the relevant modified time and date.
