If Microsoft didn't keep changing things around and forcing us to buy their
new products, they wouldn't have enough business. This is madenning. They
should write a book on how to make a simple task a major pain-in-the-ass,
because this used to be simple. What a waste of time!

OK now I'm totally confused after reading all the previous post. Recently I
upgraded from Office 2003 to Office 2007 (wow what a pain-in-the-ass change)
and cannot easily find stuff (sorry but IMHO the ribbon is a GIANT step
backwards). I get so tired of clicking on things only to discover what I'm
looking for is not there. In office 2003 I made extensive modifications to
the normal.dot file and now I want these changes in my normal.dotm file. In
2003 I could open a document and merge the template of the open document into
my normal template. Is this possible in 2007? If so how?
