is there not a quicker way to get the default template back?

**Moby-Dick** · 24-03-2005, 10:14 AM

rename normal.dot to normal.old

**Crazy Fool** · 24-03-2005, 02:31 PM

done a search for normal.dot and did not find it, even with hidden and system files showing! hmmm

**Moby-Dick** · 24-03-2005, 02:38 PM

search again

hint: docs & settings \username \application data\ microsoft \ templates

should be able to open up a document, make it completely blank and then save that as normal.doc in the templates folder...

Do a wildcard search on "normal.do?"

When you find the bugger, delete it... worst case scenario, PM me with your email addy and I'll send you mine lol

i just deleted it but word still loads up with balls up margins!! why!!

**DigiGuru** · 29-03-2005, 03:52 PM

Now you should be able to change the margins, find normal.dot and save it

Also, check your paper settings (ensure A4, not legal or letter!)
