While I was trying to get a multi-section document to restart page
numbering in each section, Word crashed. When is finished trying to
recover, I got the message that it was unable to recover the document
"Building Blocks.dotx".

It doesn't sound like this is a good thing.

Do I need to do something? Word offered no hlep.

Damn. The document that I was editing when Word crashed had 20-30
images that I painfully created. Now they all show as blank white
rectangles.

It this a setting that I can change back or are all of these images
lost?

To recover a damaged Building Blocks.dotx file, just exit Word and delete
the file. It will be recreated the next time you start Word. Observe that
you should *only* delete the Building Blocks.dotx file found in your user
profile (not the one in the Program Files folder).

For the graphics issue, see
