Problems "blank document" default format (Word 2003)

Hello;

For some odd reason, when I open-up a "blank document" in Word 2003, the
format is all messed-up... somewhere along the line, the formatting got all
screwed-up and I'm not sure how :(

How do I change the format of the default "blank document" so that it always
opens the way I want it right away? I tried going to the document's
properties, resetting the margins and the like, then clicking the
"Default..." button, but apparently that only affects the currently open
document.

Does the "blank document" have a template somewhere that I must modify? I
can't seem to find it if there is, and I can't seem to find help on this
seemingly simple issue on the Office web site :(

Sincerely,
Todd M. Taylor

Okay, I figured it out.

Somehow the "Normal.dot" document template in my user profile got modifed.
I copied a version of it over from someone else's computer, now my "blank
document" has the default formatting :)
