Here's the situation...

I need a Microsoft Word template that will not allow autoformatting.. such as auto bullets and numbering.

To stop that, I went into Tools -> Auto Correct -> AutoFormat Tab and deselected all of the appropriate options.
That worked fine... But when I went back in the next day, it was selected again.

Is there a way to keep settings?? AND is there a way to keep certain settings with the different templates that I have?

Please help me! Thank You in advance.

The simplest way to do this would be to record a macro of what you want to do then cut and paste the code into the Document_Open event procedure of the template.

If you want the settings to apply only to documents created with this template then record another macro reverting to your normal settings and paste the code into the Document_Close event procedure.

Hope this helps

Thank You! I'll try doing this. I'm not too sure if my boss will go for macros, but I'll give it shot. Thank You again!
