Nothing you do in a document should be saved in Normal.dot unless you tell
it to be. If you are getting a prompt to save Normal.dot every time you quit
Word, see €śWord prompts me to save changes to the Normal.dot template€ť

I frequently altoer my documents in ways that would cause the Normal.dot
template to be altered. I do not want this, but I get tired of having to
have
the pop-up asking me if I want to save the global changes. Is there a way
to
shut off both the prompt and the Autosave?
