This is really a two-part question:

1. When I use Office Button | New, I get a dialog as follows:

Left pane: A menu of Templates including "Blank and recent," "Installed
Templates," "My templates...," and "New from existing...", followed by a
much longer menu of offerings from Microsoft Office Online.

Center pane: Top: "Blank and recent" includes "Blank document" and my
most recently used template; bottom: "Recently Used Templates" has several
other recently used templates.

Right pane: Preview (if available) of the template selected in the
center.

If you click "My templates..." in the left pane, you will get to the
familiar New dialog you're asking for.

2. If you want a button that goes directly to the New dialog, use Office
Button | Word Options | Customize. Select All Commands, then New Document or
Template... Add that to your QAT.

In Word2007 whenever I click the New...-button, I get a dialog box that
defaults to Microsoft Online Templates. I do not want Microsoft Online
Templates, never did and probably never will. I would like to change this.
I have tried in vain to find a solution to this but so far I have found
none. Surely I cannot be the only one finding this dialog box extremely
annoying as I have to go through several more clicks to find and launch my
templates.
So in short: How do I make this button default to my costumized
(enterprise)
and workgroup templates instead? (You know; the tabbed templae dialog box
from way back or - though not fully to my liking - the sidepanel version
from
previous Word-version)
