Yes, I checked that box. However, the changed style only worked in the
document that was open when I modified the style. When I opened a new
document, the old style was used. I have attempted to open the normal.dot
file, but so far no success. I can't access "C:\Documents and Settings\user
name\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates" because there's no folder called
Application Data. Might the folder have another name?

When you modified the table style, did you check the box for "Add to
template"?

I have tried to change my table defaults following the instructions in
Word
Help, with limited success. New tables have my requested "Auto fit to
contents" but none of my other changes for header rows and not breaking
rows
are there. Is there some "magic" sequence I should follow?

All table styles except Table Normal can be modified to make this the
default.

Word should remember as a personal preference that I don't want to
break
table rows over pages.
