I edit the button image so that it looks like it has text to distinguish it
from the New Blank Document button.

Su it is already built in to Word but hidden because the marketing
department thinks no one uses it and it doesn't look sexy enough to be on
a toolbar by default!
Right-click on a toolbar and select Customize. Under Categories select
AllCommands, under Commands scroll down until you find FileNewDialog.
Drag and drop this onto a Toolbar: it will appear as 'OTHER' without a
button face. Either create your own button face or copy across one of the
default faces or simply rename it as NEW if that's your preference.
Assign it a shortcut if you want (Alt+N is usually available). Remember
to save this either to a template or to Normal.Dot when you close Word.
Brilliant - that's exactly what I wanted.
