Template Not Listed in File Find Summary View

ID: Q105859

The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0a-CD, 2.0b, 2.0c, 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c

SYMPTOMS

In Word versions 2.0 and later, when you use the File Find command to view a document's Summary (Statistics in version 2.0), the Template field will be blank if that document is attached to NORMAL.DOT.

CAUSE

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

Document summary information includes the name and location of the template attached to the active document. You can view this information by choosing Summary Info from the File menu and choosing the Statistics button, or by choosing Find File from the File menu, choosing Summary from the Commands button, (the Summary button in versions 2.x), and choosing the Statistics button.

In each case above, the template will be listed. However, when you choose to display the document with its Summary Information using the Find File command, the Template field will be blank if the document is attached to the Normal template.
