Default Word 2003 loses custom property values

Custom properties or built-in properties? You can edit the built-in property
content from the properties dialog but it will revert when the dialog is
closed. Custom properties should, however be retained and stored with the
document.

Hi,

I'm using a word template that has custom property values. When I
enter values into them they remain in place for as long as the
property window is open and then their values are deleted. This is
realy irritating as the custome properties are picked up by SharePoint
to group related documents.

Any ideas on why my custom property values are being deleted when the
properties window is closed?
