Hey all

I've got a user who has setup a heap of AutoCorrect entries in Word 2000.
They have recently gotten a new machine with OfficeXP. I have used the
Macro9.exe tool from Microsoft to Backup the settings, but when importing
them into 2002 using the support.dot tool I get a 'incorrect format' error.
Is there anyway to convert the Word 2000 settings to Word 2002 format, or am
I missing something somewhere?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers


Cameron

Use the Dave Rado's utility instead.
