Open normal.dot (or normal.dotm if you are using Word 2007) as a document,
delete the text, save and close the file.
To open normal.dot as a document, you can search for it in Windows; be sure
to search hidden files and folders. When you find the file, right-click it
and choose Open from the context menu.
The problem with just deleting the text is that this will cure the problem
if the text has been saved *in* Normal.dot. If, however, another document
has been saved *as* Normal.dot, then only renaming to generate a fresh copy
will ensure that Normal.dot has its full complement of AutoText and whatnot.
