Attached Templates/Styles
Hiya,
We receive documents on a daily basis from client that attach templates and/or styles to their documents which point to their internal servers. When we open them Word hangs for about a minute trying to find them, which when you have hundreds of documents a day can get quite frustrating! Is there a way I can reduce the timeout Word waits before giving up and actually opens the document? Thanks |

Attached Templates/Styles
Press Escape the moment you see the message appear. That will abort the
attempt to open the server template. You sometimes can work around the problem by creating a local copy of the template with the identical name as the one on the remote server. I've had this work sometimes, but not others. But, it's always worth a try. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Andy Smith" wrote in message ...
