I do not want a new document to appear when Word starts up. How to I reset
Word to prevent new documents from starting up with Word 2007 is opened?

Have you tried looking at "Change how Word starts" or "Startup
switches" in Word Help?

In previous versions you use a startup switch:

/n
Start a new instance of Word with no document open. Documents opened
in each instance of Word will not appear as choices in the Window menu
of other instances.

I cannot find "Change How Word Starts" in help. I am also having this problem
and really, really, really want to get it off my startup. Can you tell me
where this is in HELP??? H E L P !!!

Well /n still works for me. And if I type 'Startup switches' into Word Help,
the third hit in the list is all about command line switches.
