My normal.dot is no longer updating automatically.

[Guest]

I manually loaded PowerPoint 2003 and Office Tools, and now my Word 2003
normal.dot no longer automatically updates (whether I prompt to save or not)
such things as autotext additions or macros, keyboard assignments, etc.

Do you have Adobe Acrobat 7? If so, see the last bit of

You are absolutely correct! I just assumed it was the PPT, but I had also
recently upgraded to Acrobat 7, and that was it. I don't understand why
Adobe would write their software to override a basic Word function and not
give you an option to turn it off easily.
Thank you.

Because they are Adobe! Read the whole page for a long history of messing
with Word in stupid ways.
