Default Auto Correct Function Question

My company is using an Access based program. We use an Auto Correct file
(*.acl) to post entries: e.g. TT = TELEPHONE TO, CW = CONFERENCE WITH.
The problem is that we want these codes to function only when using Access.
People are upset when using Outlook or Word and they type in letter
combinations and get posting code entries. No one wants to have to keep
turning the "replace text as you type" function on and off as we change MS
programs.

Can I shut off the AutoCorrect function "replace text as you type" in all
but Access?
Alternatively, is there a way to use different *.acl files in each program:
Access, Word, Outlook, etc.?
