You have a roaming folder, it is part of the profile. Make sure you have your system set to view hidden files because that .dot file is marked as hidden :-)

My system is set to show hidden files. I did find the Roaming Folder, was in APPData not Applications Data. Word startup folder is empty. Outlook folder doesn't have such file in it. Did a search for *.dot and got nothing. Did a search for that file name ($wzrd10.dot) and got nothing. There has to be some .dot files on the drive. I know when I set up Microsoft Office I put all things to run from Hard Drive. I am going to see if my Microsoft disk will repair Office. I can't think of anything else. Can you?

Yeap, I never said Application data lol

C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP
Normally that folder should be empty. It pops up in outlook because outlook uses Word as the default editor :-)

Odd it isn't in there, I checked for that error and a lot of people have had that problem with that version of office and getting rid of that file is the fix. And very odd that a search isnt pulling anything up as well unless the search isnt looking in all the folders.
Do you also have you system set to show hidden system files as well? maybe the file is just treated as a system file and so is extra hidden.

SandyG:
Yep, LOL, just assumed on the Application Data folder. I found it and solved the problem. I will close this thread out. It was by digging in Word and Templates which told me where to find it. c://.../Program Files/Office11/Startup. Hope this helps for future reference. Thaks for all your answers, persistence and help. -Sandy
Shane:
Good to hear you found it :-D
