Endnotes - Setting defaults

[Jonathan Hardy]

Is there any way to set the default endnote number format to actual numbers
instead of roman numerals in Word 2003? I know that I can:
- Go to Insert>Reference>Footnotes
- Select Endnotes
- Change the number format
- Then hit apply
This changes all of the endnote formatting in the open document, but I want
Word to actually default to 1,2,3 everytime instead of creating a new file
and immediately having to go change the endnote format.

I have searched on this topic quite a bit and found nothing thus far. Any
help would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

You have to change the default in Normal.dot. For help with finding it, see
