It looks to me like the problem you are having is that existing documents
are searching for your templates. If that is the problem, please say so. If
it is actually that Word has trouble finding the templates when you want to
create new documents, you may need to redefine your workgroup templates
location on each computer. Tools Options File Location.

Working correctly, templates are _not_ opened to create new documents.
Rather, they are found under the File New dialog and used to create new
documents. For more on the different kinds of templates, tabs on the file
new dialog, and locations of templates folders see

We have a lot of group templates that was sitting on a network share.
Share1
we'll call it. The path was something like this
\\share1\office\templates.
I have consolidated some file servers and moved the templates to this new
server. Share2. Now it looks something like this
\\share2\group\templates.

For some reason when employees try open some of these templates it takes
either a really longtime or it gives them an error. Also if someone would
have saved one before the change, to their own home directory, local or
network, it will do the same thing. As soon as i turn back on the share1
it
works great again. I have searched through local registries and have some
entries pointing to share1. i change them and still the same thing.

These templates all have a company logo image inserted as header. Can
someone help me out with this error?
