Have been able to clear macro virus but it re-appears at random times, several wks.

Please help if possible?

Hi,


I have been using word 2003 for over a decade with no problems. Just use word for simple stuff as I'm not a typist and only use a personal home made letterhead template.



Thanks for the response,

Hi,


Thanks for the info about solving my normal.dot problem. Followed you links/direction, created new normal.dot & letterhead.dot.

QUESTION: Is it possible to copy/move normal.dot & letterhead.dot to a part of my HD that I backup daily, then point word to that templates folder and have word work with the new moved location?

Regards,

normal.dot is on C drive; 4-16 gb of WORK: word.docs & all work is on E partition? That 4-16 GB of WORK or parts of it can change several times a day.



I only backup E partition not C partition. Are you saying that if for some reason normal.dot an other ???.dot are on C in the App Data folder gets corrupted I can recover all of them by opening a word.doc on my E partition? Business is always changing & I need to be up & runing in minutes that's why I set my pc up this way.


Thanks for the tips.


regards,

Hi,


Starting from scratch; I think I got it working correctly now. Even edited current menu bar, now all templates + normal dot are in the <templates> folder on the <E> partition.
