I am trying to open a new blank document in Word2K while I already have one open. Everytime I click on the "new blank document" button on the toolbar it opens my currently opened document again as a new document. Why is this happening and how can I fix it? Thanks in advance.

It should, as you want it to, open a new blank doc. I'd suggest using the Detect & Repair under Help. Be sure to have the MS Office 2K CD handy before you start.

thanks for the info. Was nothing to repair. It was actually a macro that was the culprit.

Search for and rename or delete any Normal.dot files you find on your system. There should be only one. Word will recreate the template when it restarts.

Thanks. The normal.dot file info will be of great help in the future. It was a macro that was causing the headache.
