Ok - it gets even MORE annoying.
I have gone through and found EVERY copy of Normal.dot possible and made
sure that ther eis NO check in the box for "Update Automatically" for the
Normal Style. However, whether the user opens a new blank doc from MailSite
or just directly from Word directly, the dang thing STILL turns it back on
for a new blank doc!! I have saved over the template, I have used "FilePage
Setup DEfault" to modify the template...NOTHING IS WORKING.

Where is the copy of Normal.dot that the winword.exe accesses when it starts
up? I thought I found every copy when I did search, but some how, I must be
missing one. Grrrrr.

No, don't post a screen shot, but I would be interested in seeing a small
sample. You can send it to my email.

Yes, I am very very sure. They don't even use "prompt to update style"
or
auto lists or anything.
You want I should send a screen shot?

Hi Monica,

It's a document/template setting... Are you really sure it's not checked
in
some of her document(s) or template(s)?
And it applies to Word2003 docs just as well as Word2002.

Regards,
Klaus

Thanks Charles, but this was for 2002 and we are using 2003. The image
is
set to have that option cleared by default. So it is not workign
still.
Any
other thoughts?

I am at a new firm and things are done a bit differently.
Novell/Win
XP
clients/ Office 2003.
I have a user who scans a document, cuts the text out, then uses
Paste
Special to paste as Plain Text into a fresh doc. When she tries to
say
Bold,
or Center just a single line, the ENTIRE document becomes bold or
centered
or whatever. If she selects two or more lines, it does not happen.
I
have
cleaned out the keyboard, and looked for every switch imaginable.

Has anyone seen this and what is the fix? Do we need to reinstall
Word?
Thanks,
-Monica
