Default Auto Text in Excel?

Does Excel have an Auto Text feature like Word? If so, where are the entries
stored? In Word, they're stored in the Normal.dot file. What is the Excel
counterpart for that file?

Thanks!

It has AutoCorrect (which is not the same as Auto Text), and if you are
entering data in a list, it has AutoComplete. But no AutoText as such.

Thanks! You're everywhere!

If I had custom entries in the AutoCorrect and wanted to move those to a new
computer, where would I find them?

Thanks

AIR, there's one list for all Office programs, and they're in a file with
extension .ACL Use Search to find it.
