how do I get old autocorrect file over to new copy of ACCESS front

[Guest]

I've split my database into Back end and Front end. I'd like to use
different copies of the front end including the AUTOCORRECT data. When I
copy the front end to a new location, the autocorrect file doesn't come
along. How can I fix this?

Hi.

On my Windows 2000/Access 2000 system, it appears to be a file called
Administrator.acl (the .acl file type is AutoCorrect List File), which is
located in my user directory: C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application
Data\Microsoft\Office. I verified this by checking the date/time stamp of
the file before and after adding a new AutoCorrect entry, and verifying that
after the addition, that file had today's date when it did not previously. I
found out about this file by searching the registry for "AutoCorrect".

If you don't have the same setup as I do, the file may be named or located
differently, but I believe it would still have a .acl extension.

If you decide to replace a user's .acl file with a different one, please
make backups first, and be advised that you make such replacements at your
own risk
