"I try to avoid Normal because there always seems to be a "gotcha" in
there somewhere."
I believe there is a pretty big 'gotcha' -- If you're going to share the Word documents with others who will be opening them up on their machines in Word, and their "Normal" is different than your "Normal," your document could end up looking quite different to them than you intended. Am I right?
