In the dialog box that opens, note the location of the file called ‘CUSTOM.DIC’. Go to File> Options> Proofing> Customize Dictionary and click the Customize Dictionary button. You need to first find where MS Office has its database of words for the dictionary stored. Here is how you can port your MS Office dictionary, complete with every change you’ve ever made to it, from your old PC to a new one. MS Office now has an online version but it doesn’t do much by way of importing or exporting settings and this can be a problem when you have something like the dictionary you created on your old system over the years. This isn’t that hard for apps that have an online service working at their backend but when we’re talking about an app that functions entirely on our desktop with no way to export and import settings and user preferences, we run into a problem. Setting up a new PC to work like your old one isn’t an easy task but what’s more time consuming is when your apps have to learn from scratch what your preferences are, or rather when you have to teach them that.
Switching to a new PC is a daunting task that means installing lots of of apps again, and setting things up the way you had them on your old system.
