Are AutoCorrect Entries stored in normal.dot? Can they be stored in other templates?

By default Yes.

And yes you can copy them to other templates with the organizer.

Tools | Templats & Add-ins | Organizer | Autotext. (I think the rest is easy to follow)

Enjoy! :whistle:

Yes they are.

Yes they can, and is an EXCELLENT place to put them.

You can copy existing ones from normal.dot to another template using the Organizer. You can also do it by code.

AutoText, yes, but how about AutoCorrect? I thought that AutoCorrect was a member of application or object.

Ah Ok...mist that part.

They can be stored in ACL files or in Normal.dot.
AFAIK you can't transfer them to other templates but you can export them and import them on the new target machine.

Here's how:
