remove default File, New template tabs
I am working in Word 2002 on a network. I have created a workgroup template
folder on the network with subfolders that show up as tabs in File, New, but I would like to remove the default tabs in the dialog box (Memos, Letters and Faxes, etc.) as well as the default Word templates. Is there a way to do this? I can't seem to find a listing of these tabs anywhere. Thanks, Ricki Miles |

Ricki,
You will need to copy and save any template that you may want to use in those folders and then use Control PanelAdd Remove Programs. Click on your office application and then click change. You will need to uninstall the template files. |

You need to uninstall the templates that you don't want. You can not just
delete them (even if you can find them) because Word will "repair" your installation and bring them back.
