Default Help in changing the default summary information for a document

By Choosing the "File" menu /" Properties" then the "Summary" tab

It displays information about the document ( title, subject, author, company
etc)

How do I change this information and set it as the default information so I do
not have to change it every time I create a new document.

I changed companies and I no longer want the old company name to appear there.

I am using word 2000 on a windows 2000 laptop and changing the Normal.dot does
not seem to affect a new document

Thank you for any help you may lend

See the appropriate article:

“OFF2000: How to Change Company Name and User Name After Setup”
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=233499

“HOW TO: Change the Company Name and User Name in an Office XP Program”

For Office 97, you have to reinstall the program.
