Perhaps you could create a shortcut to the Normal template and pin that
shortcut to the Start menu (or Taskbar)?

Thanks for the answer. I also posted this on the Windows 7 Forum site.
The problem is that with Win 7 there is no option of "new" or "open" to
pin
to the start menu using All Programs.

Not really a Word issue, but if you click on the Windows Start button and
then on all programs and locate the New Office Document and Open Office
Document items, you can right click on them and select Pin to Start Menu
or
Pin to Task Bar.

I am using Word 2007 with Windows 7. I cannot find a way to add "New
Office
Document" or "Open Office Document" to the Start Menu. I was able to
do
this
in Vista and XP. Thanks.
