I am using ms word 97 and have lost a large portion of my
autocorrect entries. Is there a way to restore or locate
the old entries?

AutoCorrect entries would be stored in one of two places:
- Normal.dot template (formatted)
- a *.acl file, where the name of the file would match
your login user name

If you've had to reconfigure Windows, or have lost your
Normal.dot template that would explain why the entries all
of a sudden disappeared. Without knowing what happened, it's
quite difficult to say how (or whether) you can get them
back.
