| Dear Paul,
|
| Generally speaking, Vista or IE will not prevent Word from reading the
| user's normal.dot file. As I know, Windows Vista has the high security
| level functions such as the UAC feature. We may follow the steps below to
| disable it as a test:
|
| Turn off UAC (User Account Control)
| =================
| 1. Click Start. Go to the Search textbox. Type MSCONFIG, and press Enter.
| 2. Click Tools.
| 3. Highlight Disable UAC, click Launch.
| 4. Restart the computer.
|
| I do not think the issue is related to IE because the Word file can be
| launched via the Internet application properly.
|
| I think it is possible the issue is due to a design flaw of that Internet
| application.
|
| Have a nice day.
|

|

| | Hi Steven,
| |
| | The client is using Word 2003.
| |
| | AutoText works as expected when Word is launched through the Start menu.
| |
| | Could Vista or IE be preventing Word from seeing the user's normal.dot
| when
| | Word is launched from the internet-based application? If so, can we
alter
| | this setting?
| |
| | I understand that 3rd party software is beyond the scope of your
support;
| | it's beyond mine as well. I do have to be sure that the problem does
not
| lie
| | with my client workstation setup though.
| |
| | Unfortunately, the 3rd party running the internet-based document
| management
| | application is refusing to accept responsibility for this at present,
and
| I
| | don't want to join them in a game of ping-pong with my client!
| |
| | Thanks,
| | Paul
