Dear Graham, I'm sorry, I only know the basics of Word, although I have
used
it for years. I have never used macros and have no idea what to do with
these instructions. Where do I type the Sub NewDoc etc.....? And what
is a
QAT?
And I am unlikely to ever want to print labels, so could you tell me how
to
open normal.dotm?

You can do this by opening normal.dotm and make the changes you require,
but
I would urge you not to as it can have unfortunate effects with other
documents you may create, such as labels. Instead create a new template
with
the layout you require. Then create a macro similar to
Sub MyNewDoc()
Documents.Add Template:="D:\Word 2007 Templates\TemplateName.dotm",
NewTemplate _
:=False, DocumentType:=0
End Sub

substituting the path and name of your new template, and add the macro to
a
button on the QAT.

Hello, I would like all new blank documents to have a page number
inserted bottom right, and I cannot seem to find a way to do this. I
have to do it every time. Isn't there some way to change the normal
template? I tried understanding a previous message to someone else
on a related topic, and gave up. thanks,
