Custom building blocks missing after Office update

Yes, it would. Again, building blocks are stored in templates.
The default storage location for AutoText is the normal template.
Office updates do not replace that template. However, if you installed Office 2013 and already had an earlier version installed (2010 or 2007) it is possible that your normal template is in a different location.

Thanks for the reply. I did find the normal template and tried loading it but my entries for custom 1 gallery are still not there. The normal file is blank when I open it through VBA.

Any other ideas??
