how do i copy autocorrect options?
 
Dana DeLouis posted some code that would display the current contents of the
autocorrect list.

And some code that can import new mistakes and their correction at:
http://groups.google.co.uk/groups?th...%40tkmsftngp03

Be careful.

The autocorrect list lives in a file with an extension of *.acl.

I like to make a minor change to that list
close excel
use Windows start button Search
and find the file that just changed.
Back to excel and clean up my minor change

And then back up that *.ACL file--just in case!

If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at:
