On Linux, it is held under the user's home area. I would be very surprised if 
Windows were different here; it is not held with the document.

As a wild guess (I don't have Windows), perhaps there is a permission problem 
accessing the area where this information is kept. On Linux, the file is at
~/<openofficedir>/user/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/Common.xcu - look 
under section AutoCorrect. Perhaps some Windows user knows where the 
equivalent is.

I don't know whether Tools/Options - Load/Save - General, and ensure that 
"Load user-specific settings with the document" has any relevance.
