templates

[Don M]

I am unable to open any saved document in Word. I can open any in Word Pad.
When I go to close word I am asked " the file normal already exist, do you
wan't to replace it? I can't open any document I have created in the last
several years. I think it relates to templates. How can I restore my normal
Office word? thanks, Don
