Trying to change the default font in Word 2007 by going to Font, selecting
the Font and type, selecting DEFAULT. After exiting and re-opening Word, the
default font always changes to Italic type-face even though that was not
selected. Anyone know of this "bug" and how to fix?

Thanks,
Dan

I'm confused -- where do you "select DEFAULT"? Maybe I'm carrying over
a 2003 habit to 2007, but I'd change my default font by changing the
font in the Normal style.

The Default button in the Font dialog box did not work for me in Word
2007 (as it does in earlier versions). I had to open the Normal.dotm
and change it there.
