Well, the underlying problem is that the search results you get in the web
interface for newsgroups are not sorted by date. :-(

How embarrassing; thanks for telling me. Shows how brain-dead I was after
upgrading my Office XP to 2007, huh?

I was searching for help on changing the normal template in Word 2007 to
fit
my needs, and ended up there. I was so relieved to see that I might have
a
bit of knowledge to contribute, I just answered it.

Next time I try to be helpful, I'll check the date.

I've not read the other posts, so I'm not sure what they said. I just
today
upgraded to Office 2007 (that's why I was here looking for answers to
something else).

When I had Word 2002, this is how I adjusted the normal.dot. I'll see
if I
remember it without being able to see it.

In Word, click File, Open, then click on the bottom window to select
"template .dot" or something like that. It should automatically take
you to
the place Office keeps the templates.

In my Office 2002, templates were in my user account (the name that I
clicked on to start Windows), then Applications (or something like
that),
Microsoft, Templates. Or, in Windows Explorer or My Computer, do a
search on
"normal.dot". It will show you where the normal.dot is kept. Write
down the
path and then you can navigate to it in Word.

Open normal.dot, and make your changes. Save it and then close it.
That
should fix it.

Good luck!

I have Microsoft Word 2002 and my Normal template was somehow changed
so that
it now has text in it. I've read the previous posts about this, and
none of
them has worked. Does anyone know how to change the Normal template
so that
it comes up blank?
