Hi,

I recently upgraded to Word 2003. Since that I always get
a message when closing Word:

'Changes have been made that affect the global template,
Normal.dot. Do you ...'

I get this message every time I close Word, no matter if
I changed the document (.doc) or not. I never change the
template!

Anybody know the reason and the solution to this annoying
issue?

This is usually a symptom of a poorly written add-in making changes to
Normal.dot. The two worst offenders are the Office Plug-in in Norton
AntiVirus (which can be safely disabled) and the Microsoft Works Suite
Add-in for Word (which should be uninstalled if you are not starting Word
using the Works Task Launcher).
