Default Templates behaving badly

Inactive add-ins shouldn't cause trouble, no. Have you tried moving rhd.dot out
of the Startup folder? If so, did it make a difference?

As far as the macros are concerned, see if you can locate them in the Macros
dialog (Alt+F8) or in the Visual Basic Editor (Alt+F11).

I have to fess up that I wrote an add-in, and I don't guarantee it's perfect,
but it has not been active (that is, an "X" in the checkbox) for quite a
while, well before the problems I've described. Can even an inactive add-in
cause trouble? The only add-in that's active is rhd.dot.

But concerning my hotkey assignments, the macros are in my Normal.dot.
There's a box that says "Save changes in", but it doesn't let me specify
where the macros actually are, and for some reason the system isn't looking
for them in Normal.dot (at least this is what the message seems to indicate).
I gather that TEMPLATEPROJECT implies the system was looking for the macro in
the current document. I don't see how to correct this.

Thanks. I did seem to get an improvement when I worked directly on the
template (though I'm not sure the trouble is really gone-- it has a way of

[quoted text clipped - 17 lines]
and goes to centered. Can a whole template inherit from another whole
template? Or maybe is there a poltergeist originating in Redmond?
