77820 2002-09-08 22:49:00 On opening a DOCument it appears in a strange STYLE - wide margins, Times font, many extra lines of code, usually repeated, (probably document information).

If I INSERT this doc into a new page, the proper formatting appears. After saving, the same happens again.
Similar beviour to opening a picture instead of inserting it.

Thank you in advance

Find it (should be with templates) and re-name it to something like normal.old (Word will re-create it next time it starts)

You could delete the normal.dot, if you normally use Word default settings, I suggest renaming only if the problem is something else and you want your personalised template back.
