Default Can't get MS Word to open my dot files


Hi,
I'm running Word 2003 on a WinXP (SP2) os.
Whenever I try to create a new document using any of my templates
(File=New=select a template), I get a blank window.
The templates, however, do exist. When I run a search for a dot file, I
find then all. I can open a template file, save it as doc, and continue
my work.
Still, that's not they the program is designed.
What's wrong? Why can I use template in a conventional fashion?

Under ToolsOptionsFile Locations, is the location for the templates set to
the correct place?

What do you mean by a blank window?
