Find the file named "Custom.dic", copy it, and paste it over the top of the
same file on your Laptop.

The best way to find it is to run a search on your hard drive, because it's
fairly deeply buried. It may be in:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Microsoft\Proof

But don't assume that, it can be almost anywhere.

Cheers
