No - I'm one of those with *everything* (including the kitchen sink!) saved
in Normal. I don't ever use a separate template.

I've narrowed the odd behavior down to one document (so far). One document
opens with two copies of this icon; all other docs open with one. If I
click on the Word icon in the Office shortcut bar, the new doc has one. If
I open any other file, that file has one icon. I ran my Excel code,
modifying it to open several different docs including the odd one; the odd
doc opens with two icons, all others open with one. All are based on
Normal.
The only difference is this one odd doc is a report which I got from someone
else, modified, gave away, and has now come back. Everything else is
original with my computer. There is no code in this doc, or anything else
to make it different than what I work on every day. In fact, I've had this
doc for a few days, and I'm just now seeing this.
Does that help at all?
