I have a new computer running Win 7 and it has Microsoft Office 2007. the
computer had a RAID 1 configuration, which means a second disk was mirroring
everything the main disk was doing. The main disk failed, and I for a number
of reason i was force to do a fresh reinstall of Win7 and Office 2007 on a
new main drive. I am now trying to migrate my data from disk 2 to disk 1.

I have managed to copy over all my documents, which was straightforward.
But i also to copy the macros, toolbar settings etc from 2 to drive 1, but i
don't know what files i should be transferring. All suggestions welcome.

Best,

Bill

For the stuff that Word 2007 has in common with earlier versions, see
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/FilesToBackup.htm.

In addition, customizations of the Quick Access Toolbar that aren't
stored in specific templates are in .qat files, which you'll find in
the hidden folder C:\Users\<profile
name>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office.

Many settings are stored in the registry; see
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/DataKeySettings.htm. Those
won't be retrievable any more because the old registry has been
overwritten, so you'll have to visit the dialogs and set them again.
