Re: normal.dot takes 27mb memory...



Following up on Doug Robbins' suggestions, you may want to look at
http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm for step-by-step instructions
on moving / sharing / copying / backing-up customizations including
AutoText, AutoCorrect, keyboard assignments, toolbars, macros, etc. This
shows how to create a custom global template to take some of the stuff out
of normal.dot.

Also, make sure that you have Fast Saves and Versions turned off.
