You do _not_ want your normal.dot and other templates in My Documents (and
probably not in a subfolder of My Documents).
For more on the different kinds of templates, tabs on the file new dialog,
and locations of templates folders see

Perhaps I should know this already but ...

I'm using Word 2000. Can somebody explain, simply, the difference between
a
global template and a so-called 'regular' template? I thought they were
the
same thing!

I have moved the default loaction of the normal.dot template to a My
Documents (on a different drive). Is this the regular template or the
global
template? And what are the key differences between the two?
