Where Word 5.00 Looks for NORMAL.STY and NORMAL.GLY

PSS ID Number: Q59336 Article last modified on 11-02-1994

5.00

MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

Microsoft Word version 5.00 searches for NORMAL.STY in the directory selected in the Transfer Options “setup:” field. If the “save between sessions:” field is set to Yes, the directory setting is maintained between sessions. If the field is set to No, the “setup:” field is set to the current directory upon entering Word.

If NORMAL.STY is not found in the directory specified with the Transfer Options command and the MSWNET environment variable is set to a specific directory, Word searches for NORMAL.STY in the second directory.

If NORMAL.STY is not found in the directory specified with the Transfer Options command and no MSWNET environment variable is set, Word searches for NORMAL.STY in the Word program directory.

If NORMAL.STY is still not found, it can be created with the Gallery Insert command.

The above information is also true for the standard glossary, NORMAL.GLY. If no NORMAL.GLY is found, Word maintains a glossary by this name in memory which contains only the reserved glossary entries.

See Page 224 of the “Reference to Microsoft Word” version 5.0 manual for further information.
