change where Word stores custom style sets
I don't believe so. There doesn't appear to be an option to change the
location anywhere in Word Options (Save or Advanced [Save or General, File Locations]) For your reference, in XP, potentially critical *user-defined* files, which you might want to back up on a regular basis, are stored in the following locations (C: for illustrative purposes only) on a standalone computer: Templates C:\Documents and Settings\User Name \Application Data\Microsoft\Templates\*.dotx or *.dotm Building Blocks C:\Documents and Settings\User Name \Application Data\Microsoft\Document Building Blocks\1033\Building Blocks.dotx Also can be stored in a document template or global template Document Themes;Theme Fonts; Theme Effects; Theme Colors C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates\Document Themes\*.thmx€¦\Theme Fonts\*.xml, €¦\Theme Effects\*.xml, ...\Theme Colors\*.xml for customized fonts, effects and colors Active document theme is specified in the parent document template when the document is created Quick Style Sets C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Quick Styles\*.dotx (if modified and saved with same name as built-in Quick Style set, will also be saved here) Active Quick Style set is specified in the parent document template when the document is created Charts C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates\Charts\*.crtx Quick Access Toolbar: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\OFFICE\Word.qat Also may be saved in a document template or document but cannot be displayed from a global template loaded other than the Normal template Macros and keyboard shortcuts Document or template AutoCorrect Entries[unformatted]: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Office\*.acl AutoCorrect Entries [formatted]: Formatted entries are stored in the Normal template Bibliography master source list C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Bibliography\ Dictionary C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\ Microsoft\Uproof\Custom.dic (exclusions also saved here) List Gallery C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Word\ListGal.dat I'm sure there are others but I haven't found them yet. In Vista, just replace Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\ with Users\username\appdata\roaming (local instead of roaming for word.qat file) "Bob Day" wrote: Using office ent 07 on stand along laptop with xp is there a way to change where Word stores custom style sets from the default folder of QuickStyles?
