Change Word to open to default "New" document.
Everytime I open Word, it opens to a document I created months ago. How do I
get it to open to the default "New" document? I have searched online help, but cantnot find anything on this. Please help, it is annoying. |

Change Word to open to default "New" document.
I followed the directions from the website you gave me. Here's what I
discovered. While in Word, I click File, New, (under templates) I click on "On My Computer." The Blank Document Icon shows up. I right clicked to OPEN and found out it is in fact a blank document. So it is not that I have changed my Normal.dot file, the problem is that when I open the program Word, it opens with another file, not the Normal.dot file that is is suppose to. I have two accounts on my PC, I have looked at one account (mine-which opens correctly into a blank document) against the second account and they both look the same. Any other ideas?

I checked the "Blank Document" under File,New,Templates On My Computer; When I right click to open, It is a blank document. So I need to find out how to get that document to open when I open up the "Word" program. |
