Default Problem with word templates

Hello

We wrote a few templates for Word documents that we put in a shared folder
in a network computer.

Till here everything ok, and people start using our templates to write their
documents.

After we changed the location of those templates to another computer, with
other name and other ip the problems started happening.

The old documents build with the old templates opened very slowly(+- 2
minutes), even if they were saved in the local computer. If the computer is
not connected to network they opened immediatly. It looks like the computer
were looking around the network to try to find the computer were the old
templates were, and after it realise that the old computer does not exist
open the document.

Anyone have any suggestion, without touching DNS.

Thanks,

Luis Estevens

Answered in another newsgroup. Please do not multipost.

In the Microsoft Word newsgroups it is considered bad form to post separate
messages to multiple newsgroups. If you need to post in more than one forum
(unusual) please post a single message with both forums in the header of
that single message. That way (1) your question and the various answers stay
together, (2) less space is used on the news servers, (3) less bandwidth is
used on the Internet, (4) you only have to check one forum for answers that
appear in both forums, and (5) you won't unnecessarily annoy the people you
are asking for help. This isn't meant to criticize you. We were all
beginners once and the only way to learn is to try. (BTW, a number of the
Microsoft newsgroups don't want posting in more than one newsgroup, period.
Check the FAQ.)
Take a look on the MVP FAQ website under "getting help" for more reasons ase
well as other suggestions for getting answers more easily and quickly. URL:
