[removing all headers and footers[_2_]]

when I got to the file location (under menu: tools/options/file locations)
for the startup folder, it does not show the files that are there. I know
there are files there bec. I can see them when I use windows explorer. Why
are they not shown when I click on the folder in the tools/options/ file
locations line for startup?

They aren't shown there because that dialog shows only folders. (Yes, it's kind
of stupid that it uses the same dialog layout as the one that shows files, but
that's just the way it is.)

If you want to see the files, you have to use either the Open dialog or Windows
Explorer.

the SAME answers to this one....

Because you CANNOT select which templates to load from that menu. Word will
load all the templates in the Startup folder, so there is no point in
displaying the list of templates. To view the list of templates loaded as
addins, you need to use the template button on the Developer tab.

If you are not using Word 2007, there is no Developer tab. To open the
Templates and Add-Ins dialog box, click Tools | Templates and Add-Ins.
