Transferring Auto Correct file from Word 97 to Windows XP Computer

[DaileyJohn.20.decij]

I saved my old autocorrect file from a Windows 2000 computer
when I transferred my Word 97 program to my new XP Computer. I placed
the *.acl file in my windows folder on my C drive under the correct
logon name, but when I use Word, I always get the default autocorrect
file. Could someone tell me how I can transfer my old autocorrect file
to my new Windows XP Computer? Thanks,

JD

acl files have different names (and locations) in different releases of
Word. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/ExportAutocorrect.htm for
some information about it.
