Default Why are some file names in a folder in blue and others in black

I had this problem and figured out how to get the files titles to be black
again. Here's what to do:
1. select a file that is in blue
2. right click
3. click on properties
4. click on advanced
5.UNCHECK 'compress contents to save disk space'
6. click OK
7. click apply
8. click OK

Good luck! Those blue file titles drove me nuts. This has something to do
with compresing files, but don't ask me what. In any case, the above worked
for me. Lois

In Word 2003, some of the files in a folder are in blue color, while others

Also, how come there are backup copies of some Word files, but not others?
