Ok. I copied that into the Windows Explorer address bar and got the file
named Normal. At the top of the window the name was all blurred out. I made
the changes I wanted, but when I try to save it, it wants to save it as a
regular Word document where I last saved a Word document. How do I get it to
be saved as a template and in the right place?

You will find it easier to locate if you set Windows Explorer to display
hidden files.
If you type or copy
%appdata%\Microsoft\Templates
into the address bar of Windows Explorer or your browser you will be taken
to the default template folder location.

I recently installed Windows 7 and had to reinstall Office 2003. I
want to modify normal.dot. Accordint to the help menu it is in
C:\Documents and Settings\user name/Application

Documents and Settings folder uncer C:, and when I find my user name
(in two places) there is no Application Data folder.
I tried the search in Windows 7 by typing in nomal.dot and it did not
appear. I was able to find it when I had Windows XP and could
designate that it look in hidden files. But I can't find how to do
even that in Windows 7.
How can I find and open normal.dot to modify it?
