| How can I import Office 2000 settings from old machine onto new machine running Office 2003? (re-post) Gurus, Have a user on a machine running Office 2000. I will be moving them to a machine running Office 2003. Is there a way I can capture their Office settings via some sort of program so that way they begin work on their new machine I can "import" their old Office settings? -- Spin      |

In the options (or similar) there is a place you can change the paths to the directories it uses. This includes user settings Save the files in those paths (directories), install them in the corresponding directories on the new install. -- http://www.onahorse.com/ |

(re-post) You said: "In the options (or similar) there is a place you can change the paths to the directories it uses. This includes user settings" What exactly do you mean?

This includes user settings" you left out the working part: Save the files in those paths (directories), install them in the corresponding directories on the new install. You just copy the files in user preferences (or similar) and stick them in where the word 2003 userprefs directory is. >What exactly do you mean? Can you give me a step-by-step? No, I don't have word installed, this method is from when I did have word installed. I would play with an OS until I broke it (Win2000) the reinstall it, got tired of setting word preferences all the time so just saved them from one install to the next. ><Pennywise@DerryMaine.Gov> wrote in message >news:j1q5h31dd70jod05utjp6b4a47g9q7v7bi@4ax.com.. . >> "Spin" <Spin@spin.com> wrote: >> >>>If you change the paths to the directories it uses wouldn't you then go >>>back >>>to effectively using Office 2000 in not Office 2003? >> >> your not changing the path, your finding them so you can access the >> data. >> >>><Pennywise@DerryMaine.Gov> wrote in message >>>news:plf4h3lgddisqojg652tn1fbk2oupbnu70@4ax.com ... >>>> "Spin" <Spin@spin.com> wrote: >>>> >>>>>Gurus, >>>>> >>>>>Have a user on a machine running Office 2000.
