Mike,
To successfully save a new file as normal.dot, (with Word closed)
find
and delete the old normal.dot. Microsoft wod will automatically
replace
it when you reopen the program. Then make your settings changes and
save
as you have been doing. The following is subject to be verified:-
Note,
however, that (I think it may still exist, for older versions of
word)
there is a bug in recent JAWS versions that appears to alter the
normal.dot template file after every few sessions. Best not to worry
about that too much, but to be aware of it.
