Converting from Word Perfet dictionary to Word

Guest

I am attempting to convert from Word Perfect (Ver9) to Word 2003. I instaled
the converter so i can openthe Word Perfect files and then save them in Word
format. I transcribe medical dictation and have an extensive dictionary i
built over the years in Word Perfect ... in their "Quick Correct" feature's
dictionary. Is there any way to convert this file to a Word compatible
dictionary file so that I can import it or add the enties to the i can avoid
haveing to add several hundred entries?

If you can save the QuickCorrect dictionary as an ordinary text file, then
you may be able to do something with it. See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/ExportAutocorrect.htm. The macro
provided here creates a text file that can be edited (as by dumping your
entries into it) before "restoring" it to Word.
