NORMAL.DOT - Where does Word 2004 store this?

[Cygnus X-1]

Where does Word 2004 store the Normal.dot template? I have a copy in my
Microsoft User Data folder ­ is that correct?

Yes. You¹ll find much more about the Normal template here:

(If using Safari, hit Refresh once or twice; better yet, use another browser
for this site.)

And just in case referring to the Normal template as ³Normal.dot², which is
its name on the Windows platform, leads someone watching to add ³.dot² after
³Normal² on their Mac at some stage ‹ don¹t. Other Word templates on the Mac
can have a .dot suffix, but not Normal.
