normal.dot/autotext

[Guest]

Any help gratefully received!
How do I share normal.dot over a network?(Word 2003,microsoft
workstation/server network)
Where is it located in the first place?
& finally,if I can share it ,is that where all the autotext entries are
stored?

Actually, its sharing a updatable standard set of autotext entries that
really matters to me.

Many thanks in advance.

You _don't_ share normal.dot over a network or at all. This will have you
and your users tearing your hair out!

Use a separate global template. See
http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm for step-by-step instructions
on moving / sharing / copying / backing-up customizations including
AutoText, AutoCorrect, keyboard assignments, toolbars, macros, etc.
