Recommended Posts

I am about to move from one XP laptop to new xp laptop

 

i know about the window setup transfer function but - it does not transfer

the auto correct used in word,exel and Power point - how do i make a copy of

these from the old laptop and get the file to the new laptop.

 

same with the custom dictionary entries - how do i transfer them from the

old computer to the new one

 

again using XP on both machines - old and new

 

it would seem that MS would have a way to transfer all settings but as far

as i know they do not - things like - Places, work drop down in word,

dictionary, auto correct, favorites, all program settings and so on

 

anyway - it is a real pain changing machines but any help would be greatly

appreciated - thanks in advanc
