I upgraded from Office Pro 2003 to Student Office 2007 and have lost my
"autoformatede" words. How can I find them and use them in 2007?

Are you referring to AutoCorrect? If so, you can export the AutoCorrect
entries from Word 2003 using the macro at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/ExportAutocorrect.htm. Then use the
AutoCorrect.dotm template (in Autocorrect2007.zip) from
http://jay-freedman.info to load that document into Word 2007.

OTOH, if you're referring to AutoText, those entries will have been imported
as Building Blocks if you upgraded in place, but AutoComplete no longer
works. You will need to type the first four letters of the AutoText entry
name and press F3.
