I was just wondering if there's a simple way I can import my autocorrect
entries from Microsoft word into open office, as I have cerebral palsy
and I use autocorrect as an adaptive tool and I don’t want to enter all
of the entries again.
all your autocorrect entries are contained in the files acor_.dat,
acor_en-GB.dat, acor_zx-HK.dat etc, the path to which is listed under
tools -> options -> openoffice.org -> paths. those files are indeed
zip archives, so you can change their extension to .zip and browse
their contents. in such an archive, find the file DocumentList.xml and
open it as a text file. you will see your autocorrect entries for the
respective language in xml format. if you have a list of all your
autocorrect entries for ms word, you may add them all simultaneously
using find-and-replace facilities of openoffice writer or ms notepad.
as for obtaining the mentioned list of ms word's autocorrect entries,
see word's options -> paths to know where word stores them.
unfortunately, i don't have word at hand now and thus can't give
further advice. i can check word's storage style tomorrow at work and
write back with more details.
