New document opens in Word with blue background.

[Guest]

I have tried the 'NO FILL' command - no response. It is possible to make the
background 'white' each time a new document is opened.

Go to Tools|Options, General.
Look for the option for Blue Background, white text and remove the check.
The next time you open a new document, if it's still Blue, you may need to
locate and change the same option in your Normal Template.

The "Blue background, white text" option is stored in the Registry
rather than Normal.dot.
