AutoText

[Guest]

I work in an educational facility that uses a "DeepFreeze" program on our
student stations. I have a bilingual student that has been using the AutoText
feature in Word. I want to preserve these AutoText features and need to save
the features before the system is restarted. DeepFreeze restores the systems
to it's original state when restarted. Can any one tell me if the features
are possibly saved in NORMAL.DOT? Please let me know.

Most AutoText entries are probably saved in Normal.dot, yes. But see these
articles for more information:

Your student can save his/her AutoText entries in a separate template. See
http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm for step-by-step instructions
on moving / sharing / copying / backing-up customizations including
AutoText, AutoCorrect, keyboard assignments, toolbars, macros, etc.
