| Post subject: | normal.dot cannot be found |
I am running Word 2003 in Windows 7 with Classic Shell and want to customize my normal.dot. In the past I experienced little difficulty, but with Windows 7 and Classic Shell installed, I cannot even find this file on my PC! The folders where it might be are also inaccessible. Not sure whether this is a Windows 7 issue, a Classic Shell issue, or simply a configuration issue. "The default settings are kept in a file called Normal.dot for Office 2003 or Normal.dotm for Office 2007 and up which is located in the C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates folder" However: C://Documents and Settings will not open Why? A forum answer: "Documents and Settings is not a real folder in Windows 7. It is called a "Junction" and is there to allow older programs to inteface with the Windows 7 folder structure. The data is now contained in C:\Users\<your user name>\. There are other Junctions as well." OK fine, but there is no "Templates" folder in C:\Users\<your user name>\, and no templates folder or Normal.dot document shows up anywhere when searched for. What to do? |

http://www.itechlounge.net/2012/09/offi ... fice-2010/ says C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates rather than 'application data' Try that? |
