Thank you muchly. I have passed along the link to the document which
confirms what the programmer and I discussed earlier.

There are two Startup locations in recent versions of Word, and you can

change the path for one of those. This is discussed at

Word 2002 and 2003

A programmer has been using C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office 10
(11)
to put a template with macros and a toolbar for thousands of workers
instead
of the Word defined location. We note that even with Word closed, you
cannot
delete, rename, move that file until you close all Microsoft Office
applications.

Can anyone explain to me how this Startup location in Program Files is
designed to work? I've always thought you had to use C:\Documents and
Settings\{profilename}\Application Data\Microsoft\Word\Startup or other
defined folder as indicated within Word at Tools | Options | File
Locations |
Startup.
