Yes! That did it. thanks so much. I actually didn't realize Word had its own
start-up folder.

Again, thanks. Tom

Have you tried placing it in the Word\Startup folder? Templates in this
folder will automatically load when Word starts. To locate your
Word/Startup folder, copy the following and paste it in the Address bar in
an Exploring window, such as My Computer:
%appdata%\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP

Word 2007 under Win XP.

I have the following problem trying to get a Brother add-in, P-Touch 4.1,
to be permanently added to Word 2007.

I seem to follow the procedure, get to the Add-in page, check the P-touch
button, and have even (as far as I can tell) tried to tell Word that I
want it attached to Normal.dotm. The add-in is listed in Word as a .dot
file. This will bring up the add-in during a current session, but when
next I open Word the add-in is gone and I have to start all over.

I have steered Word, at some point during the process, to the folder
where the add-in is located, but that doesn't seem to get me over the
hump. I even copied the add-in to the Templates file; no better.

The Brother people claim that the version of the add-in I have should
work in Word 2007.

I did write once before about this, and got some responses, which I
followed as well as I could. But still no success. I assume I'm missing a
step somewhere.

Any advice? Thx.

Tom
