Okay, if you are seeing New Works Template on the File menu, it is because
it has been put there by Works (in Works Suite). Its presence there is no
guarantee that it will work. You can use Tools | Customize to add a menu
item that says anything you like, but it won't necessary do anything. The
action performed by that menu item is no longer available.

Suzanne, what I am talking about is located under "File" then "New Works
Template." I am in Word 2003 on both computers. One will display the
templates and one ask for the original post and quote.

Are these "Works" templates or "Work" templates? Perhaps they are
"Workgroup" templates? If that's so, then you're dealing with a very
different animal. The path to "Workgroup templates" is shown on the File
Locations tab of Tools | Options.

Suzanne, thanks for the referral and the link. I've posted and hope
someone
understands. I've checked the other computer and they have exactly
the
same
programs on them, which means they have Word 2002 and Word 2003 and
the
Work
Templates open just fine.
Will see if someone knows where the conflict is on the one computer or
will
just have to live with it or delete one of the programs so that it can
work
right.
Thanks for trying..

It is not normal for Word or Office to have "Works templates" in the
absence
of some version of Works Suite. I have suggested that you post in
the
Works
NG at news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.works.win. You
can
access
this with a Web browser at http://support.microsoft.com/newsgroups/
(select
English, then Works).

It has nothing to do with an answer "I like better." I know what
works
and
what doesn't and I don't know what you mean by post a question to
the
"Works
NG," anyways.
I was looking for some help and it doesn't seem we are on the same
page
here. Works templates work fine on my other computer and it has
the
Office
Pro Edition. I'm not sure if you are understanding what I am
talking
about.
Can you point me in the right direction with someone who might
understand
or
be on the same page here?

I'm sorry, but I don't see how you can possibly use Works
templates
in
Word.
But if you will post your question in a Works NG, perhaps you
will
get
an
answer you like better.

I have it on my other computer and it works just fine. I
don't
have
the
add-in on the other computer either, but I'm not sure if the
works
suite
is
on that computer or only the office pro edition.
Can't I delete the works suite and just use the pro edition
and it
will
work
fine?

No, you cannot use Works templates in Word without the Works
Suite
Add-in,
and it won't work with Word 2003. Sorry.

I have the Office Pro Edition 2003, but you may be right
that
I
also
had
the
Works Suite before that. So how do I take care of this
problem?
I'd
rather
have the Office Pro on the computer than the Works Suite.
I
just
want
the
program to work as intended which I believe is to use the
Templates,
if
needed. Got any info on this?
I overlooked the version information in your subject
line.
There
is
no
version of Works Suite that comes with Word 2003. If you
upgraded
from
Word
2002 (which came with Works Suite) to Word 2003, you may
still
have
this
legacy New Works Template on a menu bar in Word, but it
will
not
be
usable
because the Microsoft Works Suite Add-in for Word will
not
work
with
Word
2003. You will not be able to use your Works templates
in
Word
2003.

Yes, I am signed in as administrator, and no, it does

Just says "cannot display End User Agreement which

no
