WD97: Letter Wizard Defaults Stored In Normal Template

MORE INFORMATION

In Microsoft Word 97 for Windows, all default information for the Letter Wizard is now stored as AutoText entries in the Normal.dot template. This is different from the other wizards in Word 97 where the default information is stored in the Windows Registry. In previous versions of Word (6.0/7.0), this information was stored in the Wordwiz.ini file in the Windows directory.

The following lists the items from the Letter Wizard that are stored as AutoText entries in the Normal.dot file:

Item                     Letter Wizard Dialog Tab   AutoText Name
