Global Template coming unchecked - Word 2007
Word 2007
All the users in our company have the "Firm Template" attached as an add in. One user frequently "loses" the Firm Template - she must go into Word Options/Add Ins/Manage Templates and re-check the Firm Template box. What are some causes of the box coming unchecked by itself? Thank you for any suggestions. |

Global Template coming unchecked - Word 2007
It sounds as though she has a Word Startup location defined that is not the
one containing the add-in. You can install add-ins from anywhere, but they won't be active by default unless they are in the startup folder. Minor corruption of the Word data key in the registry could cause it to lose the location. http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm then http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...artingWord.htm. If all else fails you could add auto running macros to her normal template to check the add-in. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Thing One wrote: Word 2007 All the users in our company have the "Firm Template" attached as an add in.

Thank you for any suggestions.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Thank you for your quick response. I should have added that the user does not lose the add-in after a log-off or shut down. The loss occurs during the course of the work day. In other words, she signs on in the morning and has use of the template. Sometime during the course of that same active session, the add-in is lost. "Something" is triggering the add-in to be disconnected. Thank you again for your help. |

"Something" is triggering the add-in to be disconnected. Thank you again for your help. It is impossible from this distance to suggest why she is losing the template (though the data key and interference from other add-ins are favourite), but if it is becoming unchecked the following line added to both an autoopen and an autonew macro in the normal template will ensure that it is checked for each new document and each document opened. http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm AddIns("D:\Path\filename.dotm").Installed = True change the path and the name of the add-in template as appropriate. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org |
