Hope this helps.
Good luck.

Speaking of which, what are the files that I need to transfer for testing?

Template (DOT) files harbor styles, macros, and keyboard/menu/toolbar customizations. For autotext, you have to follow http://word.mvps.org/faqs/customizat...utocorrect.htm.

Any other customizations that may not carry over by simply transferring template files?
