Sorry, but could you tell me where to find this in Office 2007. The only
startup folder I can find is Office12 | STARTUP. Is this the one for Word?

By default the startup folder is a hidden file that can be located by typing
(or copying)
%appdata%\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP
into the address window of Windows Explorer or your browser.

Thanks Suzanne.

I think it will take me a while to find my way around in Word 2007. You were
always such a help when I started on 2003 all those years ago and I am sure
I shall be submitting lots of questions again now!

I have stuck with 2003 and become quite proficient but decided, finally,
that I must move with the times. I have only just installed Windows 7 so I
am trying to get to grips with that and Office 2007 at the same time.

Thanks to all the other folks who patiently answer our questions too.
