Removing Word Templates
Is there a way to totally control the template groupings and listed
templates when you create a new document? I want to remove template groups such as "Legal Pleadings", Mail Merge", etc. and just have the folders that I create in the Workgroup Templates location. Thanks -- Colin Halliday |

Don't try and share normal.dot with your workgroup. That is an individual
user file. You may find http://www.gmayor.com/Template_Locations.htm useful. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Colin Halliday wrote: Thanks, didn't realise it was that simple.

Removing Word Templates
Additionally, if you want to retain any of the Microsoft-provided templates,
copy them to your own template folders before uninstalling. -- Suzanne S.

Removing Word Templates
Depends on version of Word. In Word 97, you delete the templates and their
containing folders (or move them from the User Templates folder). In later versions you have to uninstall the templates. For more on the different kinds of templates, tabs on the file new dialog, and locations of templates folders see http://addbalance.com/usersguide/templates.htm. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup. Please post replies and questions to the newsgroup so that others can learn from my ignorance and your wisdom. "Colin Halliday" wrote in message ...
