Am getting ready to do a reformat and reinstall of XP Pro
Am running MS Office 2000
Would like to backup the dictionary with about a 100 new words I've added to
it, so
when I reinstall Office, I could add it back so I don't have to add them
back again one
by one.
I've backed up the "blocked emailers" I had in Outlook Express. I found
them in the
Registry, but could not find the dictionary anywhere.

If the list is somewhere, could someone lead me to it so I can save it.

Thanks, Paul
 
do a search for the folder called proof, the custom.dic resides in this folder.
Just make a copy of it offsite.
 
With Word 2007 in Vista it's in a folder called UProof. You can always find
out where it's stored from within Word itself.
