Default Problem with Office 2007 Default Settings

Hello,

I recently bought a new computer. When I installed Office 2007 on it I noticed something weird: the "default" settings were completely different from the default settings on my old computer. I compared the default settings on both of my computers with those of my friends and it turns out that the Office copy on my new computer is the messed up one.

For example, the Office default when you type “* “ is to make a bullet point. However, the Office copy on my new computer does not do this.


The thing is, I used exactly the same disc for both computers. So why I am getting different results?

I managed to import my old settings (ie proper defaults) onto my new administrator account, but I can't find a way to apply it to all users (I have 4 user accounts on my comp).


In summary, I need help with either one of two things:

1. Why are the default settings different on Comp A vs Comp B? How can I fix this?

2. OR, How can I change the default settings for ALL users on my new computer?


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Michael
