Vivian,

I will be working with her Tuesday & I will give this a shot.  I just followed 
your instructions on my computer & found it so I am hopeful it will be the same 
on hers.

Thank you so much,
Jan

  Hi Jan,
  I hope this helps.
  From within WORD:
  1. Go to Tools/ Templates and add-ins.In the document template
  section Normal.dot should be selected.
  2. On the Tools menu, click Templates and Add-Ins. 
  3. Click Attach, Normal.dot should be in the list, if not the only
  file listed. 
  4. Click the "Look in" drop down menu and remember the path to the
  Normal. dot.
  Now exit Word - locate the file and delete it.

  Vivian

  Hello Linda,

  I've been unable to get back to my normal routine with my seniors until
  now so this is why it is been so long since this last post.  This
  problem has not improved.

  I ran a find & it could not find the file normal.dot.  In frustration I
  uninstalled the entire Office software & reinstalled it hoping that
  would make the difference.  Well, much to my surprise, it did not change
  anything.  Every time she clicks on 'new' document she keeps getting a
  copy of the same letter that she did months ago.  Please, try to get her
  back to normal.

  Thanks,
  Jan

    Close Word and search her computer for normal.dot and rename it. Open
  Word
    again and it should be fine.  Normal.dot is a new blank document.

    I will send you this month's ABC privately now, Jan.

    Good morning to everyone,

    One of my seniors has a very strange situation so here I am again.
  When she
    clicks on "new" either the blank paper icon under file or whether she
  clicks
    file>new it opens with a letter that she wrote to someone four or five
    months ago. Some months ago, when she wrote the letter she apparently
  didn't
    'save as' but may she just 'save' changes???  Anyway she couldn't get
  rid of
    this letter so ran a search & threw everything with that persons name
  on it
    away, & emptied recycle bin.  But still every time she clicks on new
  up
    comes that letter.

    There must be a place where we can reset the New document to open
  blank & I
    would appreciate your guidance.

    By the way Linda, never received this months ABC, could you please
  resend?

    Thanks...............................Jan
