[The Old Ranger]

I am using Word 2003 with SP3 as part of Microsoft Office XP and have a
recurring problem, every time I open a file that I use very regularly,
specifically a telephone/address file, Word always asks me if I want to save
the file when I attempt to close it. I do not make any changes, sometimes
not even scrolling down the page to get a name. Am I missing a setting in
Word?
Any help would be appreciated.

There are several things that can make Word think that your document has
changed. Most common is a self-updating field like { DATE }. Other
possibilities are auto macros. Printing a document does it also.
