Changing new blank document
I've set templates up to work, however if you click on the icon for new blank
document it opens the template but defaults to a style within it rather than the normal style.. any ideas how I can change this icon to open the 'normal.dot' template? -- Regards, Helen |

Changing new blank document
Open the file normal.dot. Change the style of the first paragraph to normal
then save and close the template. http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...ocNotBlank.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Helenh wrote: I've set templates up to work, however if you click on the icon for new blank document it opens the template but defaults to a style within it rather than the normal style.. any ideas how I can change this icon to open the 'normal.dot' template? |

Changing new blank document
Thanks for the advice. I tried this but for some reason it wouldn't let me
change the style, so I deleted the hyperlink style it was using, it then reverted to normal and I recreated the hyperlink style and saved the document again as the normal.dot... it works fine now. -- Regards, Helen "Graham Mayor" wrote: Open the file normal.dot.

A blank document saved as normal.dot is not normal.dot. Only Word can create
that. See the link in the original reply. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Helenh wrote: Thanks for the advice.
