Word 2003 Font Question

Hi everyone and have to say what a great site this is.

So.....
I have my first question, in word 2003, I want to set my font to 10 whenever I pull up a new document page, even after i shut it down. It is currently set to 12. I've tried playing around with it to no avail. If someone could get me some info, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

Click Format, and then Font. Change to the font you want by default (10pt). Then, in the lower left corner of the dialogue box is a button that says Default. Click that, and you will be prompted if you are sure. Click Yes, and that will save the changes in the Normal.dot (normal template), which is what all blank documents are based on.

It should be the same in your version of Word (I'm looking at 2000), that shouldn't have changed. Hope that does the trick.

Thank you, it worked like a champ. Sorry about the incorrect punctuation.
