Can you expand on what you mean by "applying one of those templates to a new
document"? Do you mean you created a new document based on the template? Do
you mean you changed the Document Template?
Did you search for Normal.dot to see if you still have it? Also, Normal.dotm
shouldn't be in a startup folder, it should be in your Templates folder. To
find the Templates folder copy/paste the following in the Address bar of the
Windows Explorer:
%AppData%\Microsoft\Templates

I have been reading the boards about the autotext feature and trying to
follow all the different suggestions to load our Word 2003 autotext into
Word
2007. We have a variety of templates that we haven't used since installing
2007, so I tried applying one of those templates to a new document, but
the
autotext is not appearing in the Building Blocks Organizer. I can't tell
whether we still have an old Normal.dot template or not. Where would I
find
it? I'm assuming the normal.dotm that is currently in our startup folder
is
the 2007 template, which obviously wouldn't have our old autotext, right?
I'm a tad confused with this. 
So, any help that anyone can give me
would
be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks!
