Hello All, I want to modify Normal.dot file through VB.NET. Please help how I can do that as i have to remove only one entry from the same and have to keep the other things intact. One solution is to delete teh file Normal.dot but I dont want to change other users settings. Please Help. GS If you don't want to change other users settings, why are you trying to modify normal.dot? What is it that you are attempting to accomplish?

Normal.dot should _not_ be shared. You can make custom menus and share them using a separate global template. See http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm for step-by-step instructions on moving / sharing / copying / backing-up customizations including AutoText, AutoCorrect, keyboard assignments, toolbars, macros, etc. SignatureCharles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Again, read the articles on the Work menu.
