Hi all. When I open microsoft word 2000, instead of
document 1 being the default document name when the
program is opened, it is document 2. How do I get it back
to start at document 1?
Thanks.
 
I have the same problem: it occurs, when word hasnt been quited properly (e.g. with the taskmanager ;-

Solution to restart with document1: sometimes, the office-repair function works. Another way is to recreate the users profile

I also have a question: WHERE does Word remember these numbers? its user-specific, so i would say in HK_CurrentUser, but where exactly? -> Could lead to a better solution then recreating the profile
 
I already tried to delete the CurrentUser.....Data Entry in the Registry, but the document number is stored there
 
Along with Graham's advice, I find that rebooting Windows is necessary to
get back to Document1. This doesn't make any sense because you can have
cleared out all the relevant temp files without any noticeable effect.
