Uninstall Word, then reinstall it.

Hi,

Click start/find, search for normal.dot. When located, delete it. If that
doesn't help, insert your MSOffice CD, run setup and follow the prompts to
do a repair installation.

Try deleting "Normal.dot" file. If that doesn't work, post your question
in one of the Office or Word groups.
