how do i copy or save my autocorrect options file, so that i can use the same
file at home or any other PC.

thank you
 
Dana DeLouis posted some code that would display the current contents of the
autocorrect list.

And some code that can import new mistakes and their correction at:

Be careful.

The autocorrect list lives in a file with an extension of *.acl.

I like to make a minor change to that list
close excel
use Windows start button Search
and find the file that just changed.
Back to excel and clean up my minor change

And then back up that *.ACL file--just in case!
