Word cannot open this document, when starting word & outlook

Feb 17, 2007 12:32AM PST

Everytime I start word or a microsoft office app , I get this
Word cannot open this document template
(C)\...\STARTUP\WordRMR.dot

I looked in Office startup and there is no WordRmR.dot there.
I reinstalled office and I still am getting the same message.
Please help

I'd uninstall or reinstall the Microsoft reader.

Word 2003 and WordRMR.dot
Nov 8, 2010 11:03PM PST

WordRMR.dot is not installed, reinstalling RMR does nothing - how can I get hold of WordRMR.dot alone just to install it in the correct folder and which folder is that?
Thanks.

Either the NORMAL.DOT or some addon to Word. Thought? Delete both.
