Normal.doc template problem
The default filename comes from one of two places:
1. If Normal.dot (or any other document template) has text in the Title file property, this will be suggested. 2. Failing that, the first few words of the document (up to the first paragraph break or punctuation mark) will be suggested. It sounds as if the problem is (1). You'll need to edit Normal.dot to delete this from File | Properties. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...ocNotBlank.htm for more help. -- Suzanne S.
