 I've just upgraded from Word 4 to Word 5.1, and while it was fairly painless,
 I have a couple of questions:

 * Word 5.1 seems to have carried over my 4.0 custom spelling dictionary; it
 auto-opens it from the word 4.0 folder. However, it didn't auto-merge my 4.0
 Standard Glossary, to which I had added entries. I ended up merging it by
 hand, but should the installation have done it?

 * Is there a way to get Word 5.1 to pick up all the entries that are in my
 Word 4.0's "Work" menu?

 The manuals are oddly silent on these points. Thanks for any help!
