SUMMARY
In Word 6.0 and later, glossaries are called AutoText entries. To convert your glossaries from earlier versions of Word for the Macintosh to AutoText entries, follow these steps:


 * 1) Open the glossary file in Word 6.0 or Word 98.
 * 2) Click OK when Word displays the following message:

The user-defined glossary entries in this file will be converted to AutoText entries, and stored in the current template, . Built-in glossary entries are available via the Insert Date and Time or Insert Field commands.

NOTE: In Word 5.x for the Macintosh, glossaries are usually located in the program folder, which may be titled "Microsoft Word," "Word 5.1," or a similar name.
