This has everything to do with permissions on your Normal.dot file (as set
by your PC or your IT department) and nothing to do with Word (unless, of course, your Word is hosed, which is doubtful). ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com www.MyExpertsOnline.com "SirRoman" wrote in message ...

If you have Acrobat 7.0 installed, then Create Adobe PDF toolbar
add-in for Word prevents Word from automatically saving changes to your Normal.dot template (which is where toolbar customizations and the default font choice is stored). One workaround is to customize your toolbars and default font, and then click on "Shift+File | Save All" to force Word to save the Normal.dot template. Another workaround is to prevent the PDF toolbar add-in from loading, as described in the last section of http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adob...at_toolbar.htm , but you'll lose the PDF toolbar if you do this.

Another possible culprit is Acrobat 6 (full version, not the reader) which
blocks saves to normal.dot. "Anne Troy" wrote in message news:5be14$42c0e6b8$97c5108d$28950@allthenewsgroup s.com...

Thank you.
I do have Acrobat 7 Pro installed. The "Shift+File | Save All" solved the problem. Thanks.
