MS Word 2K3(SP2) - Custom Settings in normal.dot don't save
I am not new to Word and have recently come upon a curious problem. I cannot
save any custom settings I make to the global template. I have check the save feature to prompt for changes to normal.dot, but when I close Word after making toolbar settings, none of my changes appear when I reopen Word. The steps above have always worked in the past, so I do not understand what is happening now. Is there a registry change I have to make so that my changes will stick? -- gds |

MS Word 2K3(SP2) - Custom Settings in normal.dot don't save
Is Adobe Acrobat 7.0 installed on the computer? If yes, then the
Acrobat 7.0 Create Adobe PDF toolbar add-in for Word prevents Word from automatically saving changes to the normal.dot template (which is where toolbar customizations are stored). See http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/331259.html for several solutions to the problem. GAR the Barbarian wrote: I am not new to Word and have recently come upon a curious problem.

Well... Who would of thought this would be the case. I do have Acrobat 7
installed. Thanks for the quick response, this should take care of the problem. -- gds "garfield-n-odie [MVP]" wrote: Is Adobe Acrobat 7.0 installed on the computer?
