Default Editing .dotm/.dotx/dot file

When I select 'New Microsoft Office Word Document' from the context menu, or create a new document by making a new tab, the Word file started always has 'double line-spacing' set as default. In other words, when I press the return key, I get this:

x

x

x

instead of this:

x
x
x

I have to go in to the paragraph tab and check the box 'don't add space between paragraphs of the same style' every time I start a new document. How do I set up the template so that this happens by default? There are so many dotx files to choose from, 45, (but no dotm) and I have no idea which is used when starting new Word documents.

Help appreciated. Thanks,

Martin
