Export auto correct dictionary
I frequently add to the custom dictionary, and enter auto correct words as
well. How do I copy the data over to another computer as well? |
Dave Peterson gave the following advice recently:
http://groups.google.ca/groups?selm=...scapeXSPAM.com ====================== I like to do it this way. Old pc. Open excel. Make a minor change to the autocorrection list. close excel. search for *.acl and copy the one with the latest date. New pc. Open excel. Make a minor change to the autocorrection list. close excel. search for *.acl. Make note of the path/filename for that latest version of *.acl. Put the old pc's *.acl in that folder under that name. Then back to both pc's and clean up that minor change. '============================ Sakkie wrote: I frequently add to the custom dictionary, and enter auto correct words as well.

And I use that when I share between two pcs that I use. I'm careful to make
sure I don't overwrite stuff I want to keep. If you want more control... Dana DeLouis posted some code that would display the current contents of the autocorrect list and update the Autocorrection list, too. http://groups.google.co.uk/groups?th...%40tkmsftngp03 Debra Dalgleish wrote: Dave Peterson gave the following advice recently: http://groups.google.ca/groups?selm=...scapeXSPAM.com ====================== I like to do it this way.
