Default Autotext characters showing as symbols


Thanks 2dogs. I had a lot of macros and settings attached to the
normal.dot but I think it will be less painful to recreate those rather
than battle on with the issue.

Thanks heaps!

Hi Doesjka,

If you don't have a lot of important stuff in your Normal.dot
template,
delete it, and then open word and you will get a new one with default
settings. If the problem is a setting in the template this should get
rid of
it.

Rename normal.dot to oldnormal.dot and use the organiser to move your macros
from old to new.
