What I mean is... Suppose I have corrupt voice and language files, or
have recurrent problems and want to do a complete reinstall without any
of the possible corrupt files. I have over a 1000 custom words, mostly 2
to 6 word phrases. There is currently no way I know of, short of
manually copying them down with a pencil or dictating the list to a tape
recorder to save that information for a re-install. Or supposing a
friend is using Nat on another computer, friend is a doctor too, and
wants to use the painfully constructed list that I have created over a
many month period on his computer. How would he do that? Or suppose I
get a completely new computer (like the PentII 333, w. the FIJI sound
board and 128 meg ram I've been dreaming about). How would I get that
list onto my new computer??
