Hi Rachel,

Quickparts/Building Blocks/Document Parts can be stored in Word templates.

In Windows XP those normally available to you would be in
c:\Document and Settings\{Your user ID}\Application Data\Microsoft
in the 'Document Building Blocks' folder.

You may want to try creating a Document Building Blocks folder under
C:\Document and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft.
and place the template there but name it something other than
'Building Blocks.dotx'

You may also need to use the Word trust center to make that a trusted folder location.

No they arent. If I create a building block, it's saved in my personal
quickparts. If I save the document either as a straight word document or as
a word template and someone else opens it, they cannot insert the quickpart
- it is not in the building block organiser list.

Good suggestion though - I hadnt thought to look before.
