My Word 2003 default font is "Times New Roman". I have tried numerous times
to change is to "Arial" but it keeps returning to "Times New Roman". What's
wrong?

From the FAQ:

28. I can't save my customizations - AutoText, menus, etc.
Can't save normal.dot...
If you have Adobe Acrobat 7 installed see the last section of
http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adob...at_toolbar.htm.
Otherwise, hold down the Shift key when selecting the File
menu and select Save All.

If that isn't your problem, see http://addbalance.com/word/defaultfont.htm.

Hope this helps,

Select Font from Format menu, then Default. Click OK when asked about making
the font default.
