Migrating from 2003 to 2007

[Sitara Lal]

I will be migrating from a WinXP PC that has Office 2003 to a WinVista PC
with Office 2007; the two PCs are not networked.

What is the best way of moving settings, dictionaries, auto text and auto
correct entries from the old to the new PC?

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/FilesToBackup.htm in general, though
there will be some twists in this migration because the Normal template in
Word 2007 is Normal.dotm as opposed to Normal.dot in previous versions.
