I forgot to add that I'm using MS Office Pro 2000, on Win XP. I use what we
have at work, so as not to get things "confused". LOL I sometimes bring
work home, and want to keep things as uniform as possible.

I've tried that, thanks. I'm still having troubles, though. Even when I try
to save a new document, after creating my defaults, I still get those
messages. Some how, I'm assuming my Normal.doc template got changed and I
cannot figure out how to change it back.
Everything wants to default to 1" margins, Courier font, and Plain Text
style. I want .5 margins, Ariel font, size 11, and Normal style. I can't
get any new documents to save that way, even though I had previously
defaulted my documents to those settings.
I'm sorry, but I'm also not understanding some of that tutorial. When it
says "global" document/template, that means MS's default settings for a Word
document, correct? (for Normal.doc?) A person should be able to change the
default settings for Word documents, right? That's what I'm trying to do,
but it won't work. My saved/previous Word documents are fine, it's just when
I try to create new documents that I get these messages. I cannot remember
how I got the defaults to change and stay that way the last time this
happened. I think I just reinstalled Word.
I'm so confused! Sorry! LOL I can fix hardware issues, and can fix virus
issues, but can't seem to figure this one out. *doink*

If you're just trying to save defaults, you don't need to save a document.
