Re: How do I get rid of the text box that appears in every new doc

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

If you're using Vista, it will likely be here:

D:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates

....and you're looking for normal.dotm.

If you're not using Vista and it's not where Graham indicated, then check Office button > Word Options > Advanced > File locations... note the location of User templates.

Rename the normal template to oldnormal and Word will build a new
