RE: Getting the list of Autocorrect enties in word

Hello Andrea,

From your post, my understanding on this issue is: you want to get the
auto-correct entries in Word. If I'm off base, please feel free to let me
know.

If you are using Office 2003/2002, please refer to the kb article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/826147 or
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/269006/EN-US/. Office 2002/2003 has a
'AutoCorrect Utility' in C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office\Macros\SUPPORT.DOT, which can help you export the
auto-correct entries. In Word 2000, the utility is located in C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Samples\Macros9.dot (see:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/207748/EN-US/). As to Office Word 97 or 95,
please refer to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/186237/EN-US/ or
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;135778&Product=wrd97
.

The exported auto-correct entries contain Name-Value pairs. For example:
Name - Value
abbout-about

For your second question about how to detect if Word is installed on the
user computer:
If Word is not installed, your code will throw an exception when it tries
creating an instance of Word.Application. You may capture the exception and
inform the users that Word is not installed.

Please let me know if you have any other concerns, or need anything else.

Sincerely,
Jialiang Ge (jialge@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, remove 'online.')
