Folks,

In Word 2000...

In the Envelope & Label dialog, I keep changing the default Font & Font Size to my own preference (for envelopes); & it keeps resetting back to the old settings the next time I open the app.

What gives?

Also...how can I rid myself of the Office Assistant. I hide him (it...whatever) every time it pops up, but the next time I open a blank document & begin typing...here it comes again.

Thanks,

mark4man

Next time you're in Env & Labels > Font dialog box, hit the Default button in the bottom left corner.

Try right-clicking him, Options, deselect Use the Office Assistant.

sle,

Thanks. The Office assistant fix...should have found that on my own (as I had already been to that dialog.) It was like...right in front of my face (sorry.)

In the Envelope dialog, selecting the default button several times before didn't seem to work...but when I went back in today, the font & font size was now set at my chosen preferrences! I have no idea how that happened...since the last time I was there it had jumped back to the progaram defaults. I'll see if it holds...if not, I don't know.

Thanks again,

Don't even worry about it. I totally remember being like, "I hit HIDE, didn't I?!" I think it's needlessly confusing.

Me, either. Let's hope it holds!
