Transfer Autocorrect settings.

S

stephenh2

I have created a lot of customized autocorrect settings. I would like
to transfer them to my work Mac from my home mac. Is there a file that
I can copy to my work Mac that will contain all my autocorrect items? I
am using Office 2004

Hello Stephen,

Microsoft Office ACL [English] stores unformatted AutoCorrect items, and the
Normal template holds formatted items.

Cheers,

* A SUGGESTION -- WAIT FOR CONSIDERED ADVICE: If you post a question, keep
re-visiting the newsgroup for several days after the first response comes
in. Sometimes it takes a few responses before the best or complete solution
is proposed; sometimes you'll be asked for further information so that a
better answer can be provided. Good tips about getting the best out of
posting are at http://word.mvps.org/FindHelp/Posting.htm (if you use Safari
you may see a blank page and have to hit the circular arrow icon -- "Reload
the current page" -- a few times).

* AVOID SPAM: To avoid spam directed at contributors of newsgroups, you can
set up a "send-only" dummy e-mail account. Full guidelines are at

Odd, that, Daiya -- 16 hours after this post of yours I still did not see it
(via Entourage), hence my responding to Stephen.

Must be the wrong phase of the moon...

Yep. Your unformatted autocorrect entries are here:
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Microsoft Office ACL [English]

For more information on your customizations, you may want to read this

(hit refresh a few times in Safari, or use a different browser)
