Default Disable File Location Tab

Hi,

Is there a way for me to disable the File Locations Tab in the Options Menu
of Word?

When the location is a network share, the users have the ability to then
click up and view the shares on that server, although they don't have
permissions to view sub folders on the shares i see this as a potential
security risk.

I have already disabled their ability to browse the network, so i don't know
how this is being permitted.

Many Thanks

G'day "Alan" ,

You can disable the entire options dialog by ensuring they have a
global template which you have customized by removing that menu entry.
