A computer at work continues to show new Word docs with a dark blue
background. I can change them to white individually, but how do I change the
default back to normal (white), so all new docs appear this way?

See the article "Why is my "Blank Document" not blank?" at:

http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErr...ocNotBlank.htm

Maybe that is your problem.

Try Tools Options General tab
Uncheck Blue Background White Text

Fixed it in a nanosecond -- Thanks, I never would have found it using the
internal "help" topics!
