Default... - Terminal Services
I am trying to update the normal.dot through the "Default..." button
available on the Page Setup window in Word 2003. I am using MS Word 2003 on a 2003 server without SP1 through terminal services. When changing anything and pressing the "Default..." button, it states that it is changing the default settings, however, once I close and reopen word, my changes are no longer there. If I simply open the normal.dot, make changes, save, then close and reopen word, my changes are there. Anyone have any ideas? Posting to the wrong forum? Thanks! Dru |

Is Adobe Acrobat 7.0 installed on the computer? If yes, then the Acrobat 7.0
Create Adobe PDF toolbar add-in for Word prevents Word from automatically saving changes to the normal.dot template (which is where your "default" settings are stored). Choose your "defaults" again, and click "Shift+File | Save All" to force Word to save the normal.dot template. Alternatively, you can prevent the Adobe add-in from loading by editing the Windows registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Word \Addins\PDFMaker.OfficeAddin" and changing the "LoadBehavior" subkey value from 3 to 0, but you'll lose the PDF toolbar in Word if you do this.

Thanks! That was it. Man I hate those Adobe plugins. They've caused
more problems than I can count. |
