[zrider91r]

Hi all,
I am still learning my new mac i picked up earlier this year (about 3 months ago). I have the newest microsoft office installed, word, excell, etc. and when i re-boot my mac word and excel automatically open the page to choose a template or whatever.. then when i hit the little X it just opens a blank document in both.. how do i disable the feature so they no longer open upon a re-boot?

Click on each program on your dock (hold it until you see the option to quit the program). Click on Quit. That should take care of it for you.

Simply exiting the program using the red x button does not quit the program. It continues to run in the background, I believe.
