Default Normal.dotx

I don't know how to apply my styles to normal.dotx. 2007 HELP says to click
open Word Templates and normal.dotm will show up but it doesn't. How do I
set the default styles to my styles?

The default Normal template in Word 2007 is Normal.dotm. But note that you
cannot "create" the Normal template.

We are using Office 2007 on Windows XP workstations.
With previous versions of Office the Normal template, Normal.dot, was
saved
to C:\Documents and Settings\"username"\Application
Date\Microsoft\Templates.
It was easy to deploy updates to the Normal template as company policy
dictated. We didnt do this often, but there were times when certain
prescribed items needed to be added to the computers of certain
departments.
I have created a new template for the use of 26 people (Normal.dotx) and
when I save it to there computers, it seems to change certain of the
features
that are built-in and active on my computer.
Has something changed that I am not aware of? I cant seem to figure out
why
copying the template into the Templates folder does not seem to work.

Thanks for any thoughts or suggestions
