Posted: Dec 08, 2010

Hi,

I have recently updated my Office Word from 2003 to 2007. I knew where my autocorrect/word expander was in the old one, but the new version llooks a bit different. I am trying to locate where this is in my menu bar, does anyone know where I would find it?

Thanks!

Click on the Microsoft Office button top left corner (sm) - OTE

I Use Word's AutoCorrect Only As My Expander...
Jun 26, 2015

think it would be worth it to purchase something like Instant Text.    But I'm worried that if Word crashes, my computer crashes, I change jobs, etc that I will lose my entire expander file.  Can anyone tell me if it is possible to back up these files to move to a new computer when necessary or do you have to redo the entire thing (ugh).  I have one of those little flash drives -- but not sure how to get the files onto the thing.  Thanks so much!  ...

Word Autocorrect
May 24, 2013

I have been blessed with being able to work for smaller companies for the last 9 years.I just started with a new company and the platform doesn't support Word so I can't use my autocorrect, which I have been building shortcuts in all this time. We have tried pcshorthand/speedtype and are having issues with the expansion. I so miss typing in Word. Is not supporting Word the trend of the future? Should I just accept it, or look for something that I can still use Word in? ...
