Has anyone discovered a way of copying autocorrect entries from Word 2000 to Word 2010. I have nearly 10,000 entires!

Unfortunately, this doesn't work with Word 2010. There is no specific macro document for Word 2010, like Macros8 or macros9 that work with 1997-2003 versions of word. These macros save the autocorrect entries as Word files with a 3 column table. There appears to be no way of importing this into Word 2010. Someone at Microsoft needs to write a macro to do it!
Thanks

auto-text entries are stored on the normal.dot file - have you tried copying this over ?

My apologies I hadn't thought of that.
Consistency seems to be a problem as far as MS is concerned when they upgrade their versions. :)
