========================================================= 3.00 3.01 3.02 4.00 5.00 5.10 MACINTOSH kbusage ———————————————————————- The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Word for the Macintosh, versions 3.0, 3.01, 3.02, 4.0, 5.0, 5.1 ———————————————————————-

= SUMMARY =

If you want to merge one or more glossaries together into the Microsoft Word for the Macintosh Standard Glossary, do the following:


 * 1) From the Edit menu, choose Glossary. This opens the Standard Glossary if it is in the same folder as Word or in the System Folder of your Macintosh.
 * 2) From the File menu, choose Open.
 * 3) Select the glossary you want to merge into the Standard Glossary. The glossaries will automatically merge. Glossary entries from both the Standard Glossary and the merged glossary will now be listed there.
 * 4) When you quit Word, Word will ask if you want to save changes to your glossary. If you choose the Yes button, Word will bring up the Save As dialog box. Alternatively, while the Glossary dialog box is still open, choose Save from the File menu.
 * 5) Word will list the name of the glossary that you opened as the name to save the file as. If you change the name to “Standard Glossary,” Word will save the merged glossaries as the Standard Glossary. To replace the original Standard Glossary, save the new one to the same folder as the old Standard Glossary.

Now, when the Standard Glossary is opened, all the entries will be in this new Standard Glossary.
