Saving the Dictionary for MS Office applications

[Eugenia]

There are a lot of acronyms that we use and add to our
dictionaries when doing spell check. Is it possible to
save the dictionary (ie. Office 2000 MS Word dictionary)
and incorporate it into Office XP so we do not have to
keep readding these into the dictionaries?

Greetings --

You can probably copy whatever file you designated as your custom
dictionary (CUSTOM.DIC, by default) to the new Office installation.
