I'm changing PCs and I don't want to rebuild my custom dictionary in WORD.
How can I copy my custom dictionary in WORD to use on another instance of
WORD on a separate PC?
 
Custom dictionaries are stored, by default, in (Documents and
Settings\userid)\Application Data\Microsoft\Proof.

They are just text files and can be copied to new machines. If you have
anything other than the default CUSTOM.DIC you will have to tell WOrd about
it (Tools > Options > Spelling and Grammar tab> Custom Dictionaries)
