This is really strange. I can't think of an explanation (other than the
previous attempts). :-(

No, what you are describing isn't a general issue with Word. Templates work
the same in Word 2007 as it did in, say, Word 2003.

If you start Word in Safe mode (hold Ctrl as you start the application), do
you still see the issues with templates?

I started Word in safe mode and it seems to work fine. Another thing I
noticed is that in safe mode when I click Office Button, New it goes to a
different interface than before. I was getting the same interface as the
previous Word versions - a box with tabs which represented the folders under
the Templates folder.

What do you think the problem is?

Since it works in Safe mode, the problem is with the registry, an add-in, or
code added to the Normal template. See

Thanks, but nothing in that article solves my problem. What do you think I
should do?
