Can we customize font size so at Doc. open its a different size?
What I find so interesting is that, while most people - with even the
slightest shred of humility - when clearly proven wrong would would own up to having made a mistake and ask for forgiveness, Peter insists on defending his position with ridiculous arguments and incredible stretches for justification. Even his most ardent supporter recognises that he is so far afield with this attempt to prove his infallibility that she feels compelled to point out his error (and then has gone on to correct his word choice - another error which he has yet to acknowledge - and call one of his previous answers "silly"). I wonder if someone with a professed expertise in psychology might be able to explain what might motivate him to carry on this way. I certainly have my theories - mostly to do with severe trauma in childhood resulting in incomplete attachment and bonding issues - but I don't claim to be an expert in these matters. Accordingly, I would be most intrigued to hear what someone who *does* claim to be such an expert has to say... -- Cheers! Gordon Bentley-Mix Word MVP "Peter T. Daniels" wrote in message ... Of course I said that, since we don't know whether OP has Word2003, Word2007 with at least one macro, or Word2007 with no macros. Why do you find that difficult to comprehend? Stefan pointed out that if one has both 2003 and 2007 on one's system, then one does indeed have normal.dot, which I did and do. What is your problem? "I guess my system was a freak!" in the eyes of those who don't think that macro-less Word2007 has normal.dotx and not normal.dotm. Since you refuse to believe anything I say, how about this quotation from *Microsoft Office Word2007 Inside Out*, by Katherine Murray, Mary Milhollon, and Beth Melton (Microsoft Press, 2007), p 53: "Caution! The document will be converted to the new file format, given the new file extension (.dotx for macro free documents or .dotm for macro enabled documents)" On Nov 16, 8:06 am, Greg Maxey wrote: For the latter, open your normal.dot or normal.dotm or normal.dotx Note you said or "normal.dotx."

But note that if you are running Word 2003 and Word 2007 on the same machine, there will be a normal.dot file. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Peter T. Daniels" wrote in ... I didn't have any macros for months after installing Office2007, and my normal. template was normal.dotx until I did. Does my stalker imagine that people have nothing else to do with their lives than monitor newsgroups so they can post instant responses? On Nov 15, 4:49 pm, "Suzanne S.

For the latter, open your normal.dot or normal.dotm or normal.dotx template (which version of Word?), not by double-clicking it, but from within Word, and Modify (which version of Word?) the Normal style to change its font size.
