Move settings to another PC

[gybalint]

Hello!

My question is how could I move all of my Word settings (styles, auto
correct options etc) to another Word program installed at another PC. I tried
to use this kind of option of windows, but dosn't work. I'm sure Word has an
own one.

I use Word 2002.

Thanks!

Dear Suzanne!

Thanks for your help, but it hasn't solved my problem. At the link you
attached I found some stuff about export-import Word settings, but they
explain only earlier versions of Word, and not works with my word 2002. I've
no .acl files in my computer stored. The "Saved my settings wizard" option is
not qualified for auto corect options (don't really understand why not). I'
ve got about 350 autocorrect entries and hope I won't have to retype them on
my other computer.

Any other soultions, tricks?

Thx!

Everything in that article applies to all versions of Word, even though it
was written pre-Office XP. For moving AutoCorrect entries specifically, see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/ExportAutocorrect.htm

If you're not finding .acl files, it's because they're in a hidden folder.
Make sure you have hidden and system files and folders displayed when you
search.
