The Ultimate Word Undo

Ever do something really stupid to Microsoft Word? Something like, say, accidentally deleting the File menu?

Here's the fix: Word stores macros, style formats, and menu, keyboard, and toolbar customizations in a file called normal.dot, which probably resides in C:\Documents and Settings\yourlogon\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates (XP) or C:\Users\yourlogon\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Word templates (Vista). To revert to Word's premistake condition, close Word, restore normal.dot from a pre-error backup, and reopen Word.

What? You don't have a backup? Then close Word, delete normal.dot, and re-enter Word. The program will create a new normal.dot file using Microsoft's defaults.
