Jay, my normal.dot is totally empty! What do I do now? (The automatic
uppercase seems to be resolved. Thanks.)

I keep trying to set my default line spacing to 1.5 lines instead of
'single', but Word keeps changing it back to 'single'. How do establish a
default line spacing that will stick? Also, how do I get Word to stop
changing mu lower case letter to an upper case letter? AS a teacher, when I
prepare word lists I don't want the first word to be capitalized.

For the spacing, see

Pay attention, though, to the argument against changing settings in
the Normal style of the Normal.dot template -- many other styles
depend on that style, and you probably don't want all of them to
change to 1.5 line spacing. Instead, you can define or modify another
style -- such as Body Text -- and apply that style to the text you
want to affect.

The change of case for the first letter of a new paragraph is caused
by the "Capitalize first letter of sentences" option in Tools
AutoCorrect Options.See
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...AutoFormat.htm for more
information.
